Animal Deaths Due to Plant Based Farming? Your Thoughts?
Well let's be frank the point of being vegan is to end animal cruelty, but is seems many vegans alike seem to dismiss, turn a blind eye or seldom talk about animals deaths that are involved in plant farming, aren't all animals equal in a way?
before getting started let's not involve the meat industry, rather this time lets concentrate on this issue.
for instance
- Native forest and animals displaced, killed, destroyed for Plant production
- Insecticides poisoning wildlife, also getting washed towards neighbouring wildlife and water ways, where either the animals die or live a miserable life which in some cases some become deformed due to chemicals.
- Animals displaced or killed during harvesting or planting, like nesting birds on fruit trees, wild animals grazing on property which for instance might get ploughed to death by those heavy machinery like in wheat farming.
- Bugs have the highest death toll in plant based farming
-Micro organism on plants which are not sedated before death, either boiled to death, squished with teeth, melted to death my stomach acids and etc.
What are your thoughts on this? micro organism are not animals so they don't matter even though we used to be the size of one like a sperm? Collateral damage? it feeds me so...? to save many a few must die? It's wrong? it's horrendous? More needs to be done?
What do you have to say?
