People nowadays eat a lot of meat. Many of them feel they can't live without it as eating meat has become one of their dietary habits.
Personally, I think there is nothing wrong with enjoying meat. Yet I do think that many people eat way more meat than they really need.
The rising demand for meat products has meant that more poultry, pigs and cattle are needed.
Raising more animals has placed increased pressure on the ecosystem. It has also contributed greatly to carbon emissions and global warming.
In addition, our dietary habits have made us less healthy. More people are suffering from obesity, diabetes and other diet-related ailments.
While we may continue to enjoy good meals, we should pay more attention to the consequences of our dietary habits. Eating less meat would be a good start.
