Meet Gene Baur

Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food!

geneIt was such an honor for me to personally meet Gene Baur after this years “10 Billion Reasons” event in Toronto.

Did you know that every year, over 10 billion animals are slaughtered to feed 7 billion people? 9 billion chickens, 100 million pigs, 34 million cows and calves, and more than 250 million turkeys.

Did you know that 99% of the food you buy comes from Factory Farms where animals are confined, abused, sick, genetically engineered before they arrive on your plate?

What will make a difference about the way you choose your foods?

pigsEating animals for lunch and dinner is a tradition most of us have grown up with, without thinking, without questioning, without compassion.

Meat is superfluous. Meat is:
Manufacturing
Endless
Animal
Torture

Some ways to “lean into” healthier habits without having to consume animals are:

  • Embrace Meatless Mondays
  • Eliminate the eating of one animal group altogether
  • Think of meat as a side dish
  • Find delicious, healthy recipes that do not include animal products
