meat kills - consolidated lyrics

meat. k!lls

the driving force behind the destruction of the tropical rain forests, is the american meat habit. the rain forests are cleared then planted with grass for grazing livestock to create hamburger for fast food restaurants

more than half of all the water used in the united states is used for raising animals for food. 25 gallons of water is needed to produce a pound of wheat. 2500 gallons of water is needed to produce a pound of meat

dependencе on foreign oil is one of the principlе reasons for us intervention in the persian gulf. the length of time the world’s oil reserves would last if all human beings ate a meat*based diet would be approximately 13 years. the length of time the world’s oil reserves would last if all human beings ate a plant*based diet would be approximately 260 years

feedlots and slaughterhouses are both major polluters of rivers and streams. filling them with poisonous residues and animal wastes

250 000 pounds of animal excrement is produced every second in the us and there are no sewage systems to treat the wastes

in 1989, over 40% of the world’s grain harvest was fed to animals going to slaughter. if the same grain was fed directly to human beings, there
would be more than enough grain to feed the entire world

over 20 million people will die as a result of malnutrition this year

in the third world, private and government money has gone to developing cash crops for export, while food production for the poor majority is neglected

80 % of the corn grown in the us is fed to animals raised for food rather
than going to hungry people

on a purely vegetarian diet the world can support a population many times its present size. on a meat*based diet the current world population could not be sustained

cattle*ranching has always competed with wildlife. coyotes and wolves would not be shot and poisoned by ranchers if people did not eat steak and lambchops
destroying the rainforests to raise cattle is causing millions of birds, monkeys, snakes and other species to lose their homes and lives

in the us, this year alone, thirty seven and a half million cattle (37.5 million), eighty five and a half million pigs (85.5 million), five and a half million sheep (5.5 million) , two hundred forty two million turkeys (242 million), four billion one hundred forty seven million chickens (4.147 billion) will be murdered for the taste of their flesh

pain, frustration, stress, fear, abuse, neglect, and deprivation are
realities of the raising of animals in today’s factory farms. animals are artificially inseminated, fed growth hormones, overcrowded, chained and caged
raising livestock for profit is a competitive business. being humane means costs will go up
these animals are kicked, prodded, electroshocked, dragged, and finally transported to their deaths

a vegetarian diet promotes superior health, endurance, and longevity

animal products have 3 nutritional disadvantages:
they contain too much protein, too much fat, and no fiber

do not believe the protein myth. it was based on a study done by
the meat and dairy industries to rats, animals who need 1000 times more protein in their diet than humans
