Petitions

Heavy meat and dairy diets have been proven to increase the risk of heart disease, certain forms of cancer and diabetes. It also needlessly exposes you to antibiotics which make the development of superbugs more likely. Livestock accounts for 14% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, which exceeds the greenhouse gases of all transportation vehicles driving on the road. Fecal matter, concentrated antibiotics, and fertilizer runoff from factory farms pollutes surface and groundwater and causes ocean dead zones. One-third of our earth’s land reserved for livestock - either for grazing or for growing soy and corn feed for factory farms and we're losing precious forests like the Amazon.
