Eating meat has quite a few impacts on our environment. For starters, eating meat is damaging our air. It is believed that almost two thirds of anthropogenic ammonia emissions is from life stock used for eating. The chemical produces acid rain; this is a huge impact on our environment. It ruins the health of fish and destroys the ph level. The chemical also affects the structure in crops.

People in other countries are going through a water crisis. Some people are dying simply because they don’t have clean water to drink. It takes 7 gallons of water just for a pound of meat. Yet 8 % of water goes to life stock. Eating grains is also much more efficient. Producing a pound of meat takes 8 times as much energy as producing a pound of grain. 85 % of the rain Amazon rain forest is cut down to breed cattle. We are ruining our ecosystem by cutting down so many forests just so people can eat meat.

Animals were not meant to be killed and treated the way they are. We are supposed to protect our environment, not destroy it. Nothing is natural anymore, everything is full with hormones. By trying to get pleasure out of eating meat, we are ruining animals’ homes and habitats for our own selfish needs.

a) Best represents the War on Terrorism <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">Iranian Students Takeover U.S. Embassy. They basicly took over the US Embassy in Tehran <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;">for two years, which is one of the hugest acts of terriosm you could do. b) Event that should have made Americans realize a threat <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;">World Trade Center Bomb kills 6, Injures over 1,000. We should have seen this comming becauase this place is a huge target in america. Even though it was a small bomb, it was intended to blow the wole place up, we should have taken more saftey mesaures. c) Event that the student remembers the most about 9-11. This was one of the most tradjic day for all americans, which we still make a huge about today. It changed our veiwpoint on muslims & airplae security. We fought for 10 years trying to get hussien, & when we did it was on the news on every chanell for a month & still is playing today. It's the first time we really felt unsafe to be an america because were not used to having wars here. d) Event the student remembers the least about. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Khobar Towers Hit; 19 Servicemen Killed; Over 500 Injured //to be honest, iv'e never even heard about this until today.// I don't think students would rember this because most of us are two young and we doidn't seem to make a big deal about it now as we do with 9-11.
