The Ethics of Diet

By starting to eat calorie-dense meat and marrow instead of the low-quality plant diet of apes, our direct ancestor, Homo erectus, took in enough extra energy at each meal to help fuel a bigger brain. Digesting a higher quality diet and less bulky plant fiber would have allowed these humans to have much smaller guts

Well done!! Thank you PETA!

Real good music, without trash👍⭐️🤗
Maybe it's useful, to take some more, easy too remember, pictures inside. It makes it easier, for to can talk about something, to can healing mother nature.
(Just i'm only can remember, that 90% of fishes are no more exist. Helpfull pictures are always good and easier to handle, at wanna remember something).

Wow, this is the almost best and helpfull Rap i have ever heard⭐⭐⭐👍💖
Top 10 number 1 will go on

I want to go vegan but my parents won't let me 😩

Ok first of all I see your point but ok let's take how people say its disgusting that lions eat antelopes and its cruel but that is how mother nature intended it and global warming started because we wanted to change our natural instinct and without carnivores herbivores would be overpopulated let's take the mustang's in the us killing or poaching them is illegal but now they are over populated so they created a group of people that will once a year put down some of them because there aren't many carnivores able to take an adult down so to keep numbers in balance this is necessary we need them for food us humans have been eating meat since the beginning of time the lord has created some of these animals so we can eat and clothe but yeah we shouldn't just eat anything some of them were not intended for us every living bieng has a purpose for the environment and even if everyone went vegan we would still have to put these animals down before overpopulation and since we have to do that anyway why not do it in a way that we can also have plus but forcefully breeding I agree is wrong they should be kept in meadows and breed naturally cows still produce milk for about a year or two after birth and calves are weaned of it NATURALLY after max a month so there us no need for rape or the calves to be orphaned humans are supposed to be the smartest but we are also stupid and selfish

Why is this so underrated??

You might not think about the ethics of your diet, but when you choose what to eat there are many factors to be weighed. Maybe you've been told "it's okay to eat meat, because humans are naturally omnivores!" Or "You can only get protein from animal products," Or maybe you just buy whatever foods you're used to.

Except, a human's anatomy is much closer to an herbivore's, and there's more than enough protein in a non-animal diet. And vegan foods taste just as good, or better given the chance!

Considering all of that, it's never necessary to buu food that comes from animals, 99% of whom are bred on factory farms that treat living beings like commodities, mutilating them without painkillers, stealing their children, destroying those who aren't profitable, imprisoning the rest until they go insane from captivity, subjecting them to untold other abuses, then slaughtering and dismembering them (often while they're still conscious and able to feel pain).

Maybe you try to justify that suffering by arguing that wild animals die in the production of food crops, or that plants might somehow feel pain (even though there's no scientific evidence like there definetly is for animals) but that fails to take into account that it takes more than 10 pounds of grain to produce 1 pound of meat. Which means that any potential downsides to producing vegan foods are exponentially multiplied for food that comes from animals.

Then theres the fact that all those plants fed to animals could easily feed the millions of people who need food.

And studies show that the average omnivore's diet produces seven times more greenhouse gasses than the diet of a vegan.

Animal agriculture wastes water, wastes fuel, requires bulldozing more than 9 acres of land every minute and has polluted more than 35,000 miles of rivers, while the fishing industry clears out the oceans of sealife

Plus factory farms are breeding pits for viruses and pathogens, endangering all of us, but especially the omnivores who suffer higher rates of heart disease, strokes, cancer, hypertension, and exposure to far more hormones and bacteria through ingestion.

So to summaroze, the average omnivores diet provides no true advantage, other than some momentary pleasure, while a vegan diet minimizes pain, anguish, waste, pollution, boosts the health of everyone, and tastes as good or better.

You were born with freedom, that's been denied to animals, no one else can force you to eat something you don't want to, but when it comes time to choose, think: what would an ethical person do?

And what will you do?

After about half way through the video I finally realize its a song

im not against eating meat because meat is tasty and some meat is healthy. im against how they kill the animals.

I support not killing animals but still cannot stop eating non veg

You need to advertise this on tv

I eat carbs.

This is a rap song.

Just two minutes to turn you compassionate. Amazing.Great information, great motion design.

Fav video good song PETA defently sharing this and going vegan

Fire Bars

Wow, super rap with super content.

It`s great to see meat eaters watching this, because even tho they may swear that they`ll
never be vegan, that inner part of them that knows what is right {veganism) is trying to rise to the surface. 2 thumbs up!

This is pure genius!!
Woahhh mind blown!

Peta, honestly thank you guys. I'm glad this is going mainstream.

This is the best thing ever! Thank you PETA!! 😻😇💞💙🐳

thank you PETA for exposing the truth about the animal abuse and lies we have been told about the living beings who live beside us in this world, I have decided to become Vegan.

I will continue eating meat because i have right, meat taste very good.

I am trying to become a vegan I just gotta get rid of the fish

of course the only dislikes are most likely from butt hurt meat eaters 😂

all the people who put thumbs down on this video will sadly never become vegetarian or vegan and probably still have the argument that there is much more protein from meat which i already know is a loss in a bet :p

the music makes it hard for me to concentrate on what hes saying. For a moment I tought he was rapping. lol

BARS

I'm vegetarian myself, but can we stop using the "humans are naturally herbivores" argument please? It's just such bullshit and not really relevant.

PETA dropped more bars than eminem

it's so hard to change your diet though,the only vegetables I like are corn and peas,and I really like meat,but the torture is horrible😧

Ok I dont understand on why people rape pigs?

What about being vegetarian? I can't have the replacements for things like milk because I'm allergic to them (especially soy and almond milk!), and I don't want to cut the, off permanently. Is there another alternative to get dairy products from somewhere that doesn't treat their animals like personal belongings?

Amazing video.

I NEED THIS TO GO VIRAL.

amazing👌

Is this a song? +PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) please answer me

Dear Peta,

this video is really well made and I hope to see more videos of such quality in the future. I also want to encourage you not to focus on criticizing video games for their content anymore. pointing out that pokemon is a bad game for the reason that it encourages people to treat animals bad, or hating on marios tanooki suit for promoting fur products is just 100% ridiculous and makes you loose your credibility and gives people the chance to make fun of you (for a good reason!) but missing out on the true good nature of your information. games are just art and should in no way be criticized for that. Also, no animals are hurt and it wont make people bad. I mean, I myself played a lot of pokemon and mario, i have been playing Call of duty for a solid 10 years now, yet I am vegan and fully able to appreciate the concept of letting other beeings live their own lives and to not exploit them for anything. Its a shame to me to see you putting effort into the making those anti games

Share with your family and friends.

Best video

I don't usually like to listen rap, but this one is good.

Yes! Finally a video that says everything that needs to be said!

Nice

I'm a vegan and I'm 9 thank you

I'm a vegetarian and I have been wanting to go vegan for a long time I just don't know what to do when I go to a restaurant or at a friends house

Yeah but I'm still eating meat as an 11 yr old meat tastes better than vegs, and both have the same benefits

I love this video so much! But could someone maybe add subtitles? I have a lot of deaf friends and family and I would LOVE sharing this video with them :(

Very well presented video, like it!

This. Is. Awesome.
