  • The inhumane treatment of animals, which is clear, first of all let's go to the lower

  • sphere. Clearly we have evolved as omnivores and there's a high propensity for people to

  • still engage in eating meat as it has been the case historically as in the course of

  • our evolution. I do believe that over the course of time humans will see numerous reasons

  • not to eat meat at all. I'm not advocating vegetarianism based on principle, I think

  • it's more environmentally friendly, I think it's more sustainable and it's actually more

  • healthy in many ways. But when you break it down to where we are now, this industry is

  • brutal, man, we're doing all sorts crazy things to keep meat and these goods moving, hormones

  • and everything else, disease, mono cultures that are used to feed all the cattle that

  • are destroying the land, the causality unbelievable. So, in that regard, you have to blame the

  • system as far as the inhumane treatment. When you go to an indigenous tribe that actually

  • values the death of an animal before it eats it, you see this, that's like almost a pleasant

  • ritual, might not be the greatest thing. I would prefer to photosynthesize sunlight,

  • but I can't. You know, I would love to be able to photosynthesize sunlight and not hurt

  • any form of life, but I can't, so we're stuck in a particular evolutionary paradigm. I don't

  • criticize that, I criticize the market for being absolutely indifferent to life, because

  • that's what it does in its common execution of industry.
