I was only mildly teasing her. I'm sure she didn't take offence. Can't believe I'm explaining myself over such a stupid joke.

How is it going? I never actually made a concerted effort to go vegan I kind of went a week with no meat or dairy and was woah that was easy. I wasn't really sure how long I would keep it up for but after watching a few vegan youtube channels and some documentaries it became more of an ethical decision and i've kept it up for over a year now.

It's good so far while I've been at home but tomorrow is going to be Day 6 and I'm going for lunch at my boyfriends parents house. I'm a bit worried because they don't really understand vegetarianism and I hope they don't lie to me by saying something doesn't have animal stuff I'm it when it does.

I have been watching lots of documentaries too, it really reinforces the true reason I want to do this and I actually haven't felt any urge to eat animals at all this week, so it should be easy if I can keep that up.

How are they reducing the suffering of animals?

The same animals are being killed.

Theres not as much demand for meet and dairy because they're not having it as much as usual, if everybody in Britain decided to only eat meet once a day the meet industry would be shook. Its all about little changes that make a big difference.

Obviously if everyone in Britain did that it would be affected.

We're not talking about that though. What actual difference does some people being vegetarian make to the meat industry? Not a jot.

I mean, sure. But that will effectively end the planet in a decade or less. Imagine how many hundred extra factories we'd need in Britain to make that processed pretend stuff.

Some of the methods might have changed but meat eating itself is perfectly natural.

So natural that the meat and dairy industry is one of the biggest causes of climate change, so natural that a lot of people who work in abattoirs are psychologically damaged?

I can’t imagine that would do a better job at ending the planet than the meat and dairy industry.

65million people would need up to three factory-made meals a day, how does that sound better for the environment haha.

It doesn't though.

Humans enjoy meat and will continue to as they are naturally entitled to.

The way in which we get that meat may no longer be "natural" but there's all kinds of things that are no longer done naturally as in the past and are fundamentally a part of being human.

Everyone has the choice what they want to do what they don't want to do, and what they like to eat and what they don't like to eat. But let's not exaggerate.

One person making a change actually does make a difference and maybe that one person can inspire others to make a change too. I was inspired by someone much younger than me who it's way less easy for and here I am not eating animals just like her. Think about how many kilos of meat people eat in a month or year or decade? That's a lot of animals. And imagine one person stopped and then another who heard from them stopped etc.. That's less demand for the supply.

I don't think we are naturally entitalled to anything,we just take what we want ,not many really care about the consequences ,I mean look at the plastic in the ocean now killing the sealife.all that because we are entitalled? I dont think so.

Of course we are. There's a food chain for a reason. Some animals entire purpose is to provide food for other living creatures.

Poisoning the ocean with plastic is something else entirely. Stop arguing back with something completely irrelevant.

More and more people are going veggie and its becoming less aline, the meat and dairy industry have had a sight decrease in profit, companies are now investing more into plant based alternative. I believe a difference is being made its just not gonna happen overnight.

Why are humans are entitled to enslave, abuse and slaughter other being? What gives us that right? Because we're smarter?

The way we get meat is not only unnatural its also heartless and immoral. People need to realise that when they choose to buy meat they're supporting the suffering that farm animals are put through and they're supporting the damage to the environment the meat and dairy industry is causing.

You can't really think animals Being bred purely to be looked up them slaughtered is as natural as a lion or whatever killing an animal in the wild
There's nothing natural about how humans get their meat

I doubt I go be vegetarian or vegan but I'm still a massive hypocrite and defend the cause

Having the knowledge is still good, even if you haven't changed your lifestyle!

Well Done Jess.
