Opinion essay

Shall we stop eating meat?

It is well known that, nowadays, there are a lot of vegan and vegetarian people.
These people have their reasons. In my opinion everyone can do what they want but they
should know something.

In first place, and the most famous reason, because of the animals. It is true that to eat meat you have to kill the animal. And the animal that will be killed don’t have a good life. He lives in a little cage. Most of the animalist people are vegetarian or vegan. If you see any image from a slaughterhouse you will know why these people don’t eat meat.

There is another reason, because of the ecology. Most of the meat we consume comes from another countries. If you want to reduce your carbon footprint you must stop eating meat. But not all is good. The plantation of avocados in Mexico it is deforesting part of the tropical jungle. Don’t be hypocritical and if you stop eating meat, buy food from your country.

In conclusion, I may not become vegan but maybe someday I may become vegetarian.
Or at least have an equilibrated diet with less meat.
