Lately ,I UBER drive a rider . It was a long one hour drive. One of the question he ask me , why are you become a vegetarian at such a young age? Yupe I have been a vegetarian since 13 and I am now 42.
This question has been ask again and again in my life.
It is the quality of life, live healthier, know the reason why we stop eating meat , accepting the truth eating meat is not healthy , you can say is a non violence practise where you do not need to kill to get food. It is better to environment as we are consuming the food directly. Less energy and resources is wasted. Not to mention the animal wastes we need to take care that pollute the environment , cutting down of more tree for meat animal, increasing of CO2 emitted into the air, increase of temperature , increase of sea level,drought and etc.
Everything have karma, cause and effect, every action there is reaction. What we enjoy today does not just appear just like that. Even though we can pay with money to get it, there is lot of damages that has been done to the environment to produce the food that we wanted. When there is demand , there is supply. All started because we have thus "What I want eat today?"
Let work together for better tomorrow, we only have 1 earth and if we do not do something now to fix the problem. There will be less chances that your following generations can survive for what we have enjoy today.
Be part of the solution and not part of problem today !

There is no harm to reduce meat intake gradually by 1 day a week , then 2 days a week and so on..
