Humans may have been given dominion over other species, but by having this ‘might’ does it make it ‘right’ to abuse them?
Because we are. Every day. Millions of them. Every single day. Dominion film is free to watch on YouTube. You can click here for their website and choose to watch the trailer or film. I couldn’t manage to see it all the way through, which is why the trailer isn’t directly featured here. A harrowing, but essential watch to educate us all as to the truth of what really happens with animal agriculture. I got up to ‘rabbits’ on my first attempt. Deep breaths.
Then we waste gallons of their milk: The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) requires a carton of cows milk to be placed on every tray for schools to be reimbursed via the National School Lunch program.
Unbelievably, according to their own findings, 29% are thrown in the bin, unopened. ($300M of taxpayers money).
Despite a huge percentage of children being lactose intolerant the USDA only reimburse the schools for the cost of the meals if dairy is provided to the children.
A serving of a plant milk is not currently an option.

Still the fruit comes. We’ve only one fig tree and one mirabelle plum tree, but boy they’ve produced an abundance of fruit this year…
The freezer’s full, we’ve eaten stacks, given away more and are now cooking and stewing the remainder.
Make haste while the sun shines…
