Sent. I believe lowering ones meat intake, making that concious personal decision ,will stop the use of anti-biotics and hormones by reducing the actual # of cows we have. Your personal decision is very important and so are YOU, yes YOU. Your decision adds energy to the same decision made by others worldwide, and that how change is fueled. That simple really, just not easy because of disunity and other factors that were instilled in us in THE PAST. OUR Future lies in moving together, and sharing not only what we know but what we have. WE ARE all one. Dis-unity or seperation is an illusion, a third dimensional one that must start to serve us now instead of keeping us stuck in what WE ARE NOT, seperate. thx simone

If people are so concerned about what they eating, then all they have to do is stop eating the animal, no demand equals no supply, as simple as that. We are not suppose to be eating the animals anyway, not only because its morally and ethically wrong but we are not physically meant to do so.

Go green, save the animals, save the planet and save yourselves.

you would think poeple would get the hint from this that eating animals is dangerous to your health on top of being unnesary and cruel.

we need to stop all animals from being raised for food, not just stop the use of antibotics. no animal should be raised to be slaughtered for food.
