It’s Time to Make a Difference
It’s such a simple statement, but this sentence from Farm Sanctuary President Gene Baur’s letter in the beginning of the recent issue of his organization’s quarterly magazine carries so much truth and power:
“Factory farmers depend on citizens to buy their products, 
but most people oppose the cruelty associated with mass-producing meat, milk and eggs when they learn of it, so animal agriculture obscures its abuses.”
How simple of a concept is that? You have the power to effect factory farmers. You, as a consumer, have the constant choice to either support factory farms or to hinder their continuance.
Do you hear me? You have the power. You can make a difference.
Remove your blindfold and open yourself up to learning and accepting the truth. Know where your food and products come from; know who and what is profiting from the purchases you make. Be an educated consumer and refuse to support cruelty.
Be vegan and make a difference.
And that, my friends, is your daily dose of empowerment. Pass it on; empower the people around you with this knowledge.
