Imagine cutting out meat, dairy, eggs, cheese, and even cream in your coffee from your daily life . . . not because you have to, but because you want to....

I am also working towards this goal. I no longer eat red meats, very little white meat and seafood products. Vegetariansism is clearly far better for the earth's environment, not to think of the impact meat production has on the animals themselves.

This has been around for a while. Simple proposition: animal lovers sell meat. This will insure the animal was treated humanely. Also, we definitely need irradiated food! Seeing as I eat about six pounds of meat a year, it needs to stay fresh.

If you love animals, I have one question: why don't you support No-kill shelters? In cities where it has been implemented, every pet has gone to adoption. I knew Peta killed pets, yesterday I learned Humane Society kills pets. Read at http://www.consumerfreedom.com/article_detail.cfm/article/183

If it wasn't for pet owners who do not fix cats and dogs so that they are not having litters after litters, we would not have kill shelters, because there would not be 1000s of unwanted pets out there.

sorry that was for who was talking about supporting No-kill shelters.
