Why Vegetarian

What we eat affects our health, our immediate environment, and the lives of countless animals raised for food.

Why allow our heath to decline?
Why degrade our environment?
Why tolerate animal abuse on factory farms?

A plant-based diet is kind to your health, to the environment, and to the animals.

 

 

“If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men...”
St. Francis of Assisi, Roman Catholic friar, founder of the Franciscans order

 

“Life is as dear to the mute creature as it is to a man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain, just as one wants to live and not to die, so do other creatures.”
His Holiness The Dalai Lama, The Vegetarian Way, 1967
