I think it's easier to get upset at the things that happen in China because it doesn't require that we change - just that we educate people. Things very similar happen in the US daily, but what is needed is for people to stop buying these products (meat, dairy, eggs, leather) and instead buy from more humane farms. Doesn't usually happen though. |
I agree. I'm slowly becoming vegan. Unfortunately, it is very expensive (on a graduate student stipend) and time consuming. Personally, I think I will be happier knowing that I do not eat anything, or put anything on my face that hurts another animal...however that is extremely difficult (there's even cow bone in our tires!)
I'm one of those people that can't even go to a petting zoo and enjoy it...I don't know why but it just saddens me.
