Some thinks we would die without some sort of animal-based product and it can never be a strict vegan society. They tend to believe that most of nutrition in plant-based diet should be supplemented by pills to survive; and, why not eating real food instead of taking pills? In the other hand also, there...

...of Raising Animals for Food Sue Saffel Everest Institute The current methods of raising livestock are harmful. These methods use too much land, water, and feed that are greatly wasted and polluted, and become a threat to public health. Even though they live and end their lives as victims, the animals themselves end up being part of the problems. Many people, especially Americans, are killing themselves by the forkful. The cost of raising animals for food is passed on to the consumer in more ways than most would imagine. Raising cattle, for example, incurs more than just the expenses for feed, water, and medical care. Someone has to pay for the purchase of new land when the existing acreage is degraded and no longer able to grow any plant life. When the water supply becomes so polluted that it cannot be used, even for irrigation, someone has to pay the cost of obtaining a new source. When we go to the grocery store and check the cost of a certain cut of meat, a low price makes us think that our food comes cheap, but these prices don’t show the expense of cleaning up farm pollution or the immense government subsidies to agriculture. In 1996 the United States government spent $68 billion on agriculture, which translated to $259 per consumer and even more per taxpayer (Environmental Health Perspectives May, 2002). Of all the arable land in use, two-thirds is devoted to growing feed for livestock, while only eight percent is used to grow food for human consumption...

...The Pain Behind the Food We Eat Food is a very important part for all things to survive. Since it is so important, the culture surrounding our food is quite diverse and has grown through the ages. In the past, people would usually make their own food through farms or other means. However, today the source of our food mainly comes from grocery stores or we just go out to eat either at a sit down or fast food restaurant. Because of the means we go about getting our food, the source of where the restaurants or grocery stores get their food is unknown to us. Just the other day I went to a sit down restaurant and ordered chicken wings. Obviously there are laws protecting people from getting tainted food, but the source of this food was unknown to me and could of had something wrong with it. Luckily I am fine and I survived that meal, but the process of how that food got to my plate and how that animal was treated before it was slaughtered to become my food was unknown to me. Even though farm animals such as chickens, pigs, and cows are most likely going to be killed for food purposes, they are living things and do deserve to live a decent life before they become our food. The opposition might argue that there are too many people in this world who eat meat, so these means are necessary to feed all the people. But if the meat eating society were to look closely at how these animals were treated before becoming our food in most cases they would not see a very good life...

...Animal Cruelty Liz Rasey English 112 Humans have been using animals for consumption ever since we have been around on the Earth. As the populations of humans rapidly increases throughout many centuries so has the consumption levels. Just within the last few decades has the awareness for animal rights gained tons of popularity. PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) was created in 1980 and “Focuses its attention on the four areas in which the largest numbers of animals suffer the most intensely for the longest periods of time: on factory farms, in the clothing trade, in laboratories, and in the entertainment industry.” ([->0]) As the knowledge of animal cruelty becomes more popular , will people take action to ensure the lives of animals are protected against the way they are enslaved for food purposes? Animal rights activists and animal welfare organizations have slightly different beliefs and will both be discussed vs. people for animal experimentation and for food productions . Animal rights activists believe that “the rights to humane treatment claimed on behalf of animals, especially the right not to be exploited for human purposes” (The American Heritage Dictionary 2005). They also believe that humans and animals should have the same rights. The three major types of foods used for food consumption are the chickens, pigs and the cows. But there are definitely many others. “Every year in the United States over nine billion chickens...

...Genetically Engineered Foods Regina Summers SCI 207: Dependence of Man on the Environment Instructor Apuzzo February 6, 2012 Genetically Engineered Foods In today’s society and towards our future there is a controversial statement that genetically engineered food may be the solution to feed the hungry in the world. Supporters believe that genetic engineered food will ensure and sustain food security all over the world as our population continues to grow. On the other hand there are concerns about the genetically engineered food. There are many researchers that believe that engineered food is not the solution to feed the hungry. In this paper we will discuss the pros and cons about having genetically engineered foods, is it safe and an even bigger question do we need genetically engineered food? Before weighing the pros and cons of genetically engineered food, people of today’s society need to know what it is. Genetic engineering is a laboratory technique used by scientists to change DNA of living organisms. Scientists have learned and tested that there are ways of changing the structure of DNA in an organisms and customize its DNA. Genetically engineered food is commonly used in crop plants which in turn are used for feeding humans or animals. These engineered plants have been modified to resist herbicides or to improve their nutritional content. Millions of people all over the planet suffer from poverty and starvation.

...Since the beginning of man, we have hunted. We hunted for food and for supplies. More and more recently, though, people have been saying that hunting should be stopped. Today, fewer and fewer people hunt. People should hunt because it prevents overpopulation, stops environment destruction, and it supplies food for people. Hunting prevents overpopulation. When too many animals live in the same habitat, the habitat can’t produce enough food for all of the animals. Animals starve and are forced to move to other locations, like cities or towns. “When areas of nature become too over populated with certain animals, like deer, the animals suffer from starvation” (Navajo Code Talkers). Also, when animals are overpopulated in an area, diseases can...

...which is permissible to use or engage in, according to Islamic law. The term covers and designates not only food and drink but also all matters of daily life. It is one of five الأحكام الخمسة (al-ahkam al-khamsah) — fard (compulsory), mustahabb (recommended), halal (allowed), makruh (disliked), haram (forbidden) — that define the morality of human action in Islam. Mubah is also used to mean "permissible" or "allowed" in Islam. Generally in Islam, every object and action is considered permissible unless there is a prohibition of it in the Islamic scriptures. Clarification is given below in detail as to what is considered to be a permissible object or action in Islam, along with the exceptions. Halal originates from an Arabic phrase that means allowed or permitted by Islamic Law. The definition of Halal according to the Trade Description Order (Usage of the Term “Halal”) 1975 is as follows: When the term is used in relation to food in any form whatsoever, in the process of trade or commerce as an aspect of trading or part of an aspect of trading for the referred to food, the terms ‘Halal’, ‘Guaranteed Halal’ or ‘Muslim Food’ or any other terms that may be used to indicate or may be understood as meaning to indicate as permissible to be consumed by Muslims and allowed in their religion for the referred to food to be consumed, must therefore mean the following, that is, the food for which such terms are being used: * does not stem from or consists of...

ROLES AND RELATIONSHIPS IN AN ECOSYSTEM A community of plants and animals that live together are related in some ways. No organism can live alone. Neither animals nor plants can survive by themselves. Plants need animals and animals need plants. Both animals and plants need us as we need them. Human needs plants that serve the food and plants need human that produce carbondioxide in able them to survive. * For example, a colony of insects may have a tree as its home. The insects may feed on the leaves and fruits of a tree. Some birds that live in the same tree may feed on the larva of the insects are related to the birds because they provide food for the birds. The tree is also related to the birds because it provides a nesting place for them.

...have emerged and remained strong even today. One of the most recent movements, the animal rights movement, advocates for an end to animal cruelty. Vegans are part of the animal’s rights movement and show their solidarity to the movement by abstaining from consuming animal products and animal by-products. The term veganism is used to describe a movement consisting of vegetarians but whose main aim is to bring about the least amount of harm to animals (Albala 1419). First coined by Donald Watson in 1944, the term has become quite popular with the movement gaining more popularity in the recent years. Watson’s vision of veganism was to have an all-inclusive lifestyle that seeks to do the least amount of harm to all animals in the every-other...

...Farm Animals face great abuse in the food industry when they are raised; they are being treated as objects instead of living creatures. “Animal Rights: An Overview,” explains the conditions the animals are brought up in: “Common factory farming methods include confining animals in small windowless cubicles, feeding animals hormones to improve the flavor and texture of their meat and milk, and limiting exercise and interaction with other animals” (Rich and Wager). The cages used to keep the animals in are far too small for all of them to fit and have room to walk around in. This is all on purpose so the animals never have the chance to exercise, which increases the amount of meat on them. Another way the industry fattens up the animals is by...
