I joined Think to connect with other activists and raise awareness about animal rights. Until a few years ago, I was a carefree meat-eater. I hadn't made the connection between dogs that I loved and the pigs, cows and chickens that I ate. When I learned about how animals are treated so cruelly on factory farms and in slaughterhouses, I became a vegetarian. It was an easy switch for me, and I immediately felt better about my health and purity. Honestly, it just took not eating meat for a few days to realize how much it had grossed me out all along.

I want people know that vegetarianism is fun, easy, and the best choice you can make for animals, for the environment, and for your own health.
