The Cost of Meat—Too High To Pay
Posted May 21, 2007 - 12:56 by Lynn Truong
Let me start by making one thing clear: I do not think it is wrong to eat meat. It's not because I believe God gave us "dominion" over everything on Earth either. It's because I've watched shows on Discovery; I've seen Planet Earth. Nature doesn't blink an eye when it comes to one species eating another. So I'm not a newly converted vegan animal rights activist condemning all meat eaters. I just think there is a lot of information about the real and true cost of meat that most people aren't aware of. It might make you think twice before buying that $0.99 whopper. And that's all I could hope for. We should want to be able to make informed decisions that affect our personal health, public health, the environment, the animals we use for food, and legislation in our country.
