Guest guest Posted March 9, 2003 Report Share Posted March 9, 2003 Believe in the actual numbers, or don't, but it is a fact that by adopting a plant-based diet or even a diet that avoids meat on occasion you are saving animal lives. Statistics have revealed that a person who is a vegetarian for their whole life will save about 760 chickens, 5 cows, 20 pigs, 29 sheep, 46 turkeys, 7 rabbits, and over a half ton of fish and aquatic life. Just imagine yourself surrounded by all the precious life in those gentle creatures. Every day you eat a vegetarian meal, you do make a difference. ~ PT ~ Doing good to others is not a duty.Ê It is a joy, for it increases your own health and happiness. ~ Zoroaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that all??? I'd have thought I'd already eaten more cows than that and I haven't had one in two years...
