People love their excuses to continue consuming meat and dairy products. One such excuse encompasses the argument that there are too many other issues in the world to focus on animals. Again, such excuses come from ignorance. The vegan argument does not only encompass the well being of animals, it includes a care for all life on the planet and the continuance of human posterity.

What bigger issue is there than humanity destroying the posterity of all life on the planet with its continued meat and dairy consumption? By ignoring the issue, you are condemning your own grandchildren. There will be no other issues to worry about in a very short time and you can not eat money, houses, jewelry, clothes or cars. There will be no jobs to speak of and national debt will be a moot point when your grandchildren have no oxygen to breathe because animal agriculture has shredded every square mile of rain forest and cleared away all of our wetlands.

80% of every edible grain grown on the planet goes to "livestock". There are over 1 billion cows on the planet in order to sustain the meat and dairy industry. Cows consume grain at a 50 to 1 ratio, as opposed to a full grown human being and over 15 gallons of water per day(up to 25 gallons for dairy cows). It requires 16 lbs of grain and 2,500 gallons of water to generate 1 lb. of beef whilst 40,000 humans starve to death and another 6,000 die from dehydration or contaminated water sources(contaminated mostly by animal agriculture) every single day. Please wake up to the reality.
