8、快餐對動物來說是殘忍的
Okay, this one may not be a reason why fast is killing you, but it’s still a compelling reason to stop eating fast food. 9 billion animals were slaughtered in the US alone in 2012 and much of that meat is for your fast food burgers and chicken sandwiches. Large factory farms resemble more of a “business” than a “farm.” Animals suffer in crowded spaces where they rarely have access to the outdoors or sunlight. They are pumped full of antibiotics to combat disease, which runs rampant in these conditions. Livestock is one of the biggest sources of pollution and environmental negligence, according to the UN.
當然，這可能不是為什么快餐在奪去你生命的理由，但是這仍然是阻止你吃快餐的一個強有力的理由。只是在2012年在美國就有90億動物被屠殺，他們大部分的肉成了你的快餐漢堡和雞肉三明治。大型工廠化農場更像是一種商業而不是一個農場。動物擠在一個擁擠的空間，它們幾乎沒有機會到戶外或者沐浴陽光。在這些環境中疾病到處蔓延，為了抵抗疾病，它們被注滿了抗生素。據聯合國稱，家畜是污染和環境疏忽的最大來源之一。
