From chickens, pigs, fish, rabbits and cattle to chimpanzees, animals are locked up for consumption.
Since the fifties of the 20th century, intensive breeding in livestock has increased sharply. An increase that keeps pace with the recent increase in cancer mortality and premature mortality. Factory-produced and factory-prepared food has everything to do with it.
Closure of slaughterhouses can be a solution. For many addicts to animal proteins and fats this is not a pleasant prospect. We would like to eat everything we like.
Besides agriculture, food can also be safely produced in the oceans. Changing eating habits from food which are highly processed with a lot of animal proteins and low in vegetable content to plant-based food from land and animal-based food from the Oceans, may be a more cost effective way towards health and well-being than developing additional drugs. Or .. would you prefer to eat your beef- fish-hamburgers, cold cuts, BBQ, battery layed eggs, meatballs and sausages and a future with more chronic diseases and cancer, regular screening of your “food baby” and many doctor visits.
