Hey @nytimes.com, who paid you to write such a car crash of an article, full of misinformation about factory farming? You already changed the headline in light of the negative response. Maybe it’s time to fact check the article by someone who doesn’t have an agenda? www.nytimes.com/2024/12/13/o...

An animal can kill to live, but unlike humans, an animal never lives to kill. #govegan

🐾 The British Veterinary Association officially dropped their old stance against plant-based diets for dogs 🌱🐶 After checking out the latest research, BVA now says it's safe to feed your furry friend a plant-based diet, as long as it meets all their nutritional needs 🥕 www.bva.co.uk/media/5997/b...

By now, I thought I've seen it all. But today I found an animal sanctuary that actually serves meat and other animal products at their café. I mean, how bizarre and hypocritical can it get? #govegan

Did you know that during the #SanFermin festival 60 bulls are forced to scramble down Pamplona’s narrow streets only to be stabbed to death for a bloodthirsty mob? https://petauk.org/3hf

A recent UK government report indicates that total meat production in the UK fell by 4.1% in 2023, marking the first decline in over a decade. www.gov.uk/government/s...

I wonder how they would have decided if it had been the other way around? #govegan

International furniture retailer IKEA exploits animals for leather while presenting itself as a sustainable company. Animals need their skin—humans don’t. Please take action here: peta.vg/3vxu

Bird flu, which has killed hundreds of millions of birds, has now infected cattle and even one human. The more mammalian species get infected, the greater the risk of it evolving into a strain dangerous to humans. Experts warn that this bird flu pandemic could be 100 times worse than COVID. #govegan

So, farmers feed cattle and other farm animals something called "poultry litter" - a mixture of poultry excrement, spilled feed, feathers, and other waste scraped from the floors of industrial chicken and turkey production facilities - and then we are surprised by outbreaks like H5N1?

In 2023, the USDA paid poultry producers more than half a billion dollars for animals they were forced to kill after H5N1 was detected on their farms. Not only are we wasting taxpayer money on profitable companies for a problem they created, but we’re not giving them any incentive to make changes.

When will we finally realize that nature is trying to tell us something?

A conservative estimate is that we kill 2.5 billion animals for food every single day, which means if we were killed at the same rate we kill animals, humanity would be wiped out within four days. For animals, this planet is hell. #GoVegan and end the suffering.

🌎 A global shift to a plant-based diet would enable us to provide food for every individual (!) on Earth and release 76% (!) of the current agricultural land. 🥦🌽 #GoVegan 🌱

When we talk about killing trillions of animals, we're really talking about the experience of trillions of individuals, each of whom is forced to endure the absolute horror, pain and suffering that we inflict on them. #GoVegan

Their freedom is not ours to take 🐬

Every pound of flesh humans consume is hammering another nail into the polar bears' coffin, leaving them adrift on ever-thinning ice. Change your habits, not the climate #GoVegan 🌍

Smash a car window to rescue a suffering dog on a hot day and the police will give you a pat on the back; rescue a piglet suffering on a factory farm and they'll arrest you.

Future generations will look back at people who still ate meat and think, “Why didn’t you listen? Why didn’t you care?”

Despite the belief that animals lack understanding of death & time, evidence suggests otherwise, with signs of mourning and fear in slaughterhouses. This raises a troubling question: By subjecting animals to perpetual suffering without their understanding, are we not creating a living hell for them?

🐷🌱 Animals are sentient beings with the ability to feel pain and emotion—just like you and me. By adopting a vegan diet, you have the power to reduce the exploitation and suffering of animals in the meat, dairy, and egg industries. Every meal you eat without animal products is a victory for animals.

Every living being deserves compassion, including those in our food system. Let's remember that farmed animals are individuals with feelings and deserve to be treated with kindness and respect. By going vegan, we can show compassion and work towards a more ethical and sustainable future. 💚🌱

Remember, every time you order a burger, a steak, a chicken sandwich, someone had to die. #GoVegan 🌱

The UN’s Food & Agriculture Org. called for countries like the US to reduce meat consumption to combat global warming. Meanwhile the US Farm Bill spends billions to make high-emissions meat cheap for consumers & profitable for factory farms. It’s a systemic problem, funded by the federal government.

Breaking my “stop posting Twitter screenshots on Bluesky” rule here to repost the same fact check I did the last time this person said this complete nonsense. 🧪

🌱 Big news in Berkeley! The city is voting on banning factory farms, setting a unique precedent in the US. This could trigger a nationwide movement. Let's see if the Bay Area can pave the way for change. 💚

Regardless of the label, the end destination remains the same 🐄

What is so scary about trading in dead bodies for living foods like fruits and veggies? 🥦🥕🌽

Switching to plant-based diets in England could save the NHS £6.7 billion annually, preventing 2.1 million diseases and adding 170,000 quality-adjusted life years. The facts speak for themselves. 📊 Make a compassionate choice! Opting for a plant-based diet means a better world for everyone. 🐾🧑🏽👩🏽🐷💚🌱

The environment pays a high price for meat production. 🌎 In a world without farmed animals: - Greenhouse gas emissions ➡️ drops by 15% - 1/3 of the land used to graze livestock ➡️ used otherwise - Consumption of drinking water ➡️ reduced by 20-30% - Deforestation in the Amazon region ➡️ reduced by 50%

🌱 Choosing kindness towards farmed animals not only benefits them but also contributes to a more compassionate and sustainable world. 🌍 Small choices can make a big impact. 🐮🐷🐔 #AnimalRights #BeTheChange #GoVegan

Watching a majestic orca swim in the wild is awe-inspiring; confining them to tanks is heartbreaking.

"A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral." — Leo Tolstoy #govegan 🌱💚

Embracing compassion towards animals is innate; it's a natural instinct from the moment we’re born. Treating animals with kindness is not just a choice; it's the way we're meant to coexist. 🧑🏽👩🏽🐷🐮🌱

“If we shift away from eating meat and dairy and move towards a plant-based diet then we could still produce enough to feed us but do so using a quarter of the land.” David Attenborough advocates a plant-based diet as a crucial step in addressing environmental concerns. #govegan 🌱
