Pregnant And Self Employed

A type written school about a book I read.



Last week I finished reading Eating animals Jonathan Safran Foer. The book's thesis is simple: 1. People eat more meat than ever, more people than ever, and the price of meat has increased considerably in the last hundred years 2. The only way to have as much meat as cheap industrial animal production is 3. The farms are highly polluting and unhealthy, not to mention that the animals live in shocking conditions (by putting an adjective).

The topic and the findings lend themselves to write books adoctrinantes, and may it be as indeed it that neither noticed. Safran Foer has both a very personal story and the results of an investigation for which hardly anyone has time or resources. The opinions and facts are documented repeatedly separated and further references help to make the distinction (pure physics mania: I read the references.) If it were necessary to add something to a well-documented history the book is also very entertaining.

learned that there is consensus that meat production is not sustainable. And it will be even less, when China and India begin to consume protein in amounts comparable to Europe or America. No water, no soy, no space to feed and breed these animals, and definitely no where to put all the crap they produce.

And if the pollution and sustainability convince not one, there are still farming conditions (or production). Industrially produced animals have no room to move. The production of the species with the demand has increased by modifying the animals to have more muscles in your body naturally could handle. The animals are constantly sick and are treated preventively with antibiotics. Antibiotics that end up consuming us and make our diseases more resistant to antibiotics. So from the most tender piece of meat for a bbq for Fernando, boring pieces of meat and planes served in the cafeteria of the university come from animals that probably would not have wanted to know in life. And then what with that face I eat?. -----



data and more data by Juan Manuel. Awesome variation in per capita meat consumption in Spain, of 21 kg per person in 1961 to 118 Kg per person in 2002.
