“You don't have to spend the entire day hunched over your computer consuming this information. Maybe, it is as simple as once in a while glancing down at the device that's invaluable to you or many reasons, catching up, or it lets you know when you should know something.

“There are many innovators hard at work seeking to perfect alternatives to meat, milk, and eggs. These food products will, like computer-generated graphics or photography or sound systems, just keep getting better and better until there is little difference between an animal-based protein and a plant-based one, or farm-produced versus cultured meat. That will make it easy for people to make the kinds of choices that will usher in a world with far less violence.” PeopleWorldKindLittlesHardChoicesEasySoundDifferencesPerfectAnimalViolenceProductsComputerPhotographyPlantSeekingAlternativesMeatGet BetterEggsFarmsMilkVersusProteinInnovatorsSound Systems Author:Wayne Pacelle
