A study has shown that large amounts of red meat and processed meat increase the chances of heart disease and cancer , with this study finding numbers above 20 percent for the increase of those diseases. Of course, then there is the fact that you have to kill a sentient being to get the meat... but since that is much less offensive than impending death to most, let's stick to the subject. As the article says, it is not just about creating a world of vegetarians, but meat-eaters need to make it a small side part of meals, not the glorious centerpiece. Or, why not go vegan or vegetarian ?
