Draft “The Ethics of Eating”

It is important to treat farm animals in an appropriate way for them to produce in a healthy and

safe way. Little by little, countries are changing their method of how they should treat farm animals to

produce more meat and eggs. The method is now changing, farm animals are being kept in small cages

and are not being let outdoors. This also affects both the animal and the human being because we are

consuming their eggs and meat and its bad for us. Although some believe that continuing the method of

the westerns are treating the farm animals is still okay to do because they are supplying more meat and

eggs, people should consider changing the method because the animal will be healthier, produce safely

and be healthy for humans to consume.

With the condition with these animals are being treated at the farm are more likely to die faster

because of their health being. In the book “The Way We Eat,” by Jim Mason and Peter Singer, talks

about the animals decent life. They mentioned the animals life that people don't notice what's happening

with the animals. They said “the level of ammonia in the air from their accumulated droppings stings the

eye and hurts the lungs. Slaughtered at only 45 days old, their immature bones can hardly hear the weight

of their bodies. Some collapsed and unable to reach food or water, soon die, their fate irrelevant to the

economics of their enterprise as a whole.” These animals are being put through danger and are slowly

dying because of their health. They cant hold their weight of their bodies because of the harsh chemicals.

They are stuck in one place and are not being able to go outside. The animals need to be given proper

food in order for them to live and be let outside to breathe. They can not last long enough to live

Putting multiple animals in a small cage will not help them produce safely, they will be producing

but in a dangerous way. Some can not deny that putting an amount of animals together can produce more

meat and eggs and it doubles the amount. Having gmore is a good thing for humans however if they keep

producing in a dangerous way, can lead to less meat and eggs because they could damage the food by
putting too much weight and they can they can harm it by eating or destroying it. If we let the animals

free outside it is more likely for them to produce in a safe environment and could produce more in a clean

way. It will also guarantee food.
