Reasons to go vegan:
1. Animals have to live in a little cage for their whole life.
2. Millions of baby roosters are thrown in the grinder because they're useless.
3. Calves are taken away from their mum and slaughtered, so you can take the cows milk for yourself, this happens one time a year for each cow, to make sure they don't stop giving milk (they need to have calves to give milk)
4. As you can see on the image, meat industry causes global warming.
5. Because meat industry wastes so much farming grounds, veganism can stop world hunger.
6. The seas are almost empty because of overfishing, 90% of the catch is bycatch (also whales, sharks and turtles that are almost extinct) and the nettings destroy the coral reefs, that are needed for life on this earth.
7. There are kinds of food that give, almost just as much proteins ad meat does and proteins are the only thing meat gives you, if you don't believe me, look at oxes or gorillas, they're vegan and healthy, scientists also say meat causes cancer.
8. It's just wrong to let animals suffer just because you're afraid to try vegan.
If you still have a reason to not go vegan, say so.
If you don't, you should go vegan right now![spoiler]*hugs monkey*[/spoiler]

Look the fact of the matter is, animals eat other animals all the time. One thing eats another thing and poops it out, fertilising the ground so something else can grow; this is how life works. Now you can get all bleary-eyed about eating something which is already dead and on your plate, but then you should also get upset when a bear eats another animal, because they're omnivores just like us. They have 'the choice' but no one campaigns for them to stop eating meat. I have nothing against people campaigning against the meat industry, but against eating meat in general I find it completely ridiculous. In essence, there is no difference between eating a fish you've just caught from a river and an apple you've just pulled off a tree; it's just that a fish squirms about to let you know it doesn't want to be eaten whereas an apple doesn't.
