I know he's a conservationist, therefore I know he will advocate for "managing" the "resources" that are sentient nonhumans. This is irksome, as the premise is that we need to save the animals (and which ones is an interesting discussion) because we will suffer if they are gone. Those are the final words of the book.

I do Transcendental Meditation and other kinds, as well, and recently I've been getting requests for good meditation resources that don't cost $2,500 for a mantra (like TM). We vegans have a lot of feelings associated with why we do what we do and I, for one, find it necessary to do a lot of work around my emotions.

The suffering in this world that occurs at the hand of humankind and is entirely intentional, is disgusting and dispiriting. I choose not to watch videos or bombard myself with images of suffering. I don't need to "remind myself" of how bad it is to bolster my commitment to veganism. Thanks so much. I know it's out there.

Humans get all wrapped up in stories of those who can communicate their sufferings.

Animals can't do that. There is a group for every cause.

There are moral reasons to go vegetarian: recognition that it is wrong to contribute to unnecessary animal suffering the injustice of exploiting animals and killing them for no good reason If human have rights, then many nonhuman animals also have rights, and confining and killing these animals for food violates these rights.

In fact, animals used for food do suffer a great deal. Now there is no doubt that the actual treatment of animals used for food is immoral, that animals are made to suffer needlessly. KBJ: Singer’s claim is that one should not contribute, even incrementally, to animal suffering. causing a decline in U.S. milk production.
