The meatrix issues


The welfare of animals has been treated poorly due to factory farms. This affects both the animals and the consumers purchasing products coming from factory farms.  Animals are being forced to live in a cramped space where they have no room to move. They are weak and drained. They are not fed proper nutrients.  They are injected with antibiotics just to keep them alive. We as consumers can help prevent these factory farmers from doing this. Organic products come from animals that are not mistreated. If consumers are purchasing more organic products the factory farms loose out on profit. The more profit they loose the more they realize people are buying healthier goods. They will eventually change their treatment on animals to continue making money.  We should care about this; because not only are animals being abused our bodies are to. If animals are being fed harmful products those same animals are going into our bodies. We are also being fed those hormones and antibiotics. If we care about our health and bodies we should also care about the health of the animals. Take a stand and purchase organic or fresh farm products.
