Reduce Consumption Go Veg

Billions of animals are harmed and killed every year at the hands of humans. Most of this is to produce meat for food. Clearly one of the simplest ways to reduce this is to reduce your own consumption.

Whether you go vegan, vegetarian or make a commitment to minimise what animal products you use, this has an effect in a market economy. It may not appear to make much difference over a day or a week, but each month and each year you follow this practice, you are saving lives and influencing the economy. Each time you don’t buy meat, this becomes a statistic and whether it is the small take away business owner, the supermarket chain number-cruncher or the farmer, it is registered and they adapt to the change.
