AWARENESS
Canadians For The Ethical Treatment Of Food Animals.
I would like everyone that reads my site to be aware of this wonderful organization. If you do not live in Canada please take the time to find one similar in your country.
Awareness makes us less ignorant.
It may sometimes lead us down a harder road at first because we can no longer look the other way but if you prioritize and make the effort, in the end, it can give you a purpose and strength you didn't think you had. Being aware of what is really going on in the world can empower all of us to make better, conscious choices. Raising awareness to the ethical treatment of factory farmed animals is just one of my many passions. I believe the more you know, the more passion and drive you will have to truly make a positive difference.
Next time you pick up a piece of meat at the grocery store ask yourself,
Do I know where this meat or dairy product came from?
Was this animal treated humanely?
Do I know what is actually in this meat or dairy?
If you do not know the honest answers to these questions and if the answers to these questions mean something to you, then please, take the time to find and support a farmer who really cares about their animals, shares the land with the animals and takes care of our ecosystem.
