Food and Sustainability Issues


I was totally unaware of the harsh conditions the animals were put in before I viewed The Meatrix. Our world has extreme food and sustainability issues as shown in The Meatrix. Animals placed in these factory farms in such tight spaces that they can’t even move is just horrible. Moving is actually vital to one’s health, whether it is realized by everyone or not. Therefore, this is the start of the negative effects on the animals. Also, in these factory farms the animals aren’t cared for as much as they need to be or would be cared for on a traditional factory farm. Thus, their living environment is unsanitary and on top of these things the animals are being injected with antibiotics. I imagine that most of the food bought in the Raleigh area by myself, friends and others has endured the same atrocious conditions. The food processed by factory farms need to be replaced by the original traditional family farms because they are more humane and would provide us with safer food to eat.
