Yes, now we have November the vegetarian month. A month to think again what and how we eat. As it is a fact that the eating of meat has risen. Not so much in the western world but in many countries where it used not to be that much meat at the table.
Well, we all know one reason is, that if your life standard has risen, you're going to eat more meat as this is called the rich peoples food. Sadly that brings us to more problems then we need. But there is also another reason why the eating of meat has risen. Rice has become more expensive and so meat has become cheaper. That's why more and more poor people eat meat instead of rice with vegetables.
Now we know that meat is not the healthiest of food. It is not that dangerous as many may claim and most science study can't really show that it is a bigger danger then not eating meat. But the studies show quite clear which meat is healthy and which not and those is not meant to just choose the right animal it is the way we grow our flesh.
We have meat farms all over the world and there are thousands of animals, staying and waiting, growing in high speed and getting antibiotics and steroids. They stand without having the freedom to move as they need.
So bad food is the bad way we treat. That's one of the reason why this month was taken to open the awareness of eating meat.
Above all the gas those animals give out, which is very much a part of the global warming, we destroy our nature and ourself- our health as we take unhealthy meat to us. As it is those speed meat needs a lot of salt and fat and other things to be tasty. Sadly those things are the second big danger to our lives.
Those things makes us getting fat and having heart problems and so on, getting diabetes and stomach problems and cancer. As we also take more meat and forget the rest on the table. Many people have start eating just meat and losing the sight of vegetables, salads and fruits. Which makes it worse for the body- twice.
But this month will also be here for asking how we treat our plants. There we do a lot wrong too as I already have written about it.
Destroying our nature with the food industry is nothing new but can be avoided as we need to change some rules and habits.
First those DIN Norms has to go away as we put more then half of the harvest to the garbage hill. What a waste and what a lie from the politics, the WMF and other big organizations that we need Gen manipulated food. We never needed that!
So folks time to stand up and go on the streets and tell it to your government!
With the food we throw away, it is said that we can feed the earth population three times!!!!!!!
Kinda much went wrong with the industrialization!
Starving people all over the world and then comes the church and tell us "bread instead of fireworks". What a hole phrase. What a shame! Just the church could pay for all the children of the world and then all religions have enough money to feed the people everywhere. But what do they do?! Some project to keep the rise on the table- useless projects.
If they have the power, why not using it for just this and change the laws and rules in giving out food. Because they don't want it. Because they want money and not help.
Well, there we have the devil!
The same is of course for big companies and your ministers. Kings and Queens. They all could, but don't want. So we, the common people have to start getting up and showing them the mirror they always want to avoid.
Another reason for the vegetarian month.
Oh I hear you starting complaining right now- stop it!
No one said it must be big from the beginning, start with little steps and get a feeling of what you are capable of. You will be surprised of how much you can do! Start with being aware of what you eat. Eat less meat and only from the local and a little farmer as this will have more fair and healthy living for the animals and if you are a man with empathy this is what you want. Then look out where you're food is coming from- big farms or small ones. Do you really need every fruit all around the year? No! Buy those who are actually naturally ready to be eaten and not grown in far away countries or greenhouses. Buy only what you really will eat (because otherwise the risk you will throw the rest away is big) and think/remember about that cheapest food is mostly not always the healthy food. Make most of your meals by yourself and you will eat differently. Eat less as we all eat to much in the western world. Gather yourself around with people who thinks similar and try the same. In that way you'll feel stronger and more positive in your attitude.
You don't have to be a vegan and avoid milk and eggs and cheese, but take less of them as this is also an industry with horrible side effects for the animals.
Because let's be true, to change your food habits takes time and it has to start in your mind. And yes mankind would not have survived without starting eating meat, although no one can be for sure. And that an elephant does not need meat is typical vegan to show us that we don't need it, but there are other big animals who eat just meat as lions, crocodiles and those are one of the oldest race of earth. So find better reason to avoid meat! The same with taste- meat does not taste itself is a lie it taste and plants can taste awful and boring or nothing at all. So the reason lies in how we treat each other, or nature and ourself. The reason has to lie in your empathy and what future you want for mankind and as one can be sure- too much meat makes us more aggressive as we need to be.
But after all, all your body needs will contain in plants but read through a lot of literature and be critical as here we have on every side lobby politic working.
Much listening to your inner voice will be needed in the end.
I am pretty sure your way will go up and down and change in more then one way, but nevertheless- this month can give you the chance and the reason to start.
LOVE & LIGTH
