About Me |
|
| Action for Animals operates under the simple principle that animals do not exist for humans to eat, wear, experiment on, or use for entertainment. We therefore promote a Vegan lifestyle. AFA strives to end animal suffering through educational outreach, demonstrations, and media involvement.
Please donate to support our work! Go Vegan Today! Vegans take personal responsibility for making the world a better place by giving up meat, dairy products, eggs, and other animal-derived items. By doing so, vegans don't contribute to the needless suffering of animals. Living a vegan lifestyle is the best thing you can do to help animals. On average a person switching from the standard American diet to a vegan diet will prevent the abuse and killing of about 100 animals per year. If you are not already vegan, please work to cut all meat, egg, and dairy products out of your diet. If you don't feel you can go vegan "cold turkey," you may want to try reducing your animal product consumption by a set amount every week, until you are completely vegan. Remember, it's not an all or nothing. Every time you choose vegan food over animal products you are making a difference. If going vegan seems too difficult right now, start simple. Eat veggie dogs, use soy milk on your cereal, increase the portions of the vegan foods you already eat. Promote AFA by putting these banners on your page!

Add this video to your page! Copy the code below and paste in your "About Me" under "Edit Profile" MEET YOUR MEAT [You might need to use Internet Explorer to view this video on MySpace. If you are using Firefox click here to watch the video.] Much of this video was filmed at a small family slaughterhouse in Massachusetts. Everything shown in Meet Your Meat is standard agricultural practice [SAP]. Some is even better. There are no laws to protect birds at any stage of meat or egg production, and the only law that covers mammals is the Humane Slaughter Act, which is barely enforced and usually only covers things that are not considered SAP. There are no isolated cases in the Meet Your Meat video. The reason this persists is, in part, because people refuse to believe it. The cruelty and killing will not stop unless we stop supporting it. Commercial meat, egg, and dairy production are done for profit, just like any other business, so as long as a practice increases profits, it will be done, regardless of the impact on the animals. You can try to deny what goes on or justify supporting it--or believe that you are not supporting it--but the reality is that eating meat, eggs, and dairy does support what you see in the video. |
