Dailly assignment : Why Adopting a Vegetarian Diet?

Topic : Why Adopting a Vegetarian Diet?

In American English, they use "Meat and potatoes" to design the centerpiece of meal. In addition to food, meat signifies the most important part of anything. For most Americans, meat has become the heart of an American meal. Meat gives them protein and therefore build and make their muscles strong. However, although people have confidence and believe that it makes them healthier, other people let go of it and becoming vegetarian. Some people adopt vegetarian diet not because it doesn't profit to their health, but just to prevent animals' cruelty. According to them. animals like human beings feel pain, stress, and fear. They say that people can not justify the pain and suffering of animals that they kill for food when they can find the equivalent on other plant foods. Beans and other plant can provide the same quantity of protein that meat gives. According to vegetarians, Eal calves for example forced to live in extremely small cages can not move nor create appropriate movements to relax their body. They kill them just at twelve to sixteen weeks old to have a very soft meat. To ethical reasons, some vegetarians choose not to eat meat for environmental reasons. They state that cattle cause seriously the soil erosion due to overgrazing of land which creates deserts out of grasslands. According to these people, cattle production also creates water pollution through organic waste and the use of chemicals in animal feed. Furthermore, cattle production pollutes the air. Grain-fed cattle contribute significantly to global warming through the production of carbon dioxide, methane, and other toxic substances. For all vegetarians, people must eat flesh-free diet to make a decision for important global or personal reason that not only impact personal health and well being, but also the health and well being of the planet.
