Does an animal's life has the same value as a human life?
We are at the pinnacle of the evolutionary pyramid. But does that give us the moral right to end anotherlife? Or does the rest of life exist to supplement our survival and happiness?

Value....such an odd term....Most people would say no, but a case could be made that they have equal value but it's fine for humans to act as a member of the food chain....

@originnone PETA is working towards it. So hopefully we can see this as a law in the coming year

@VeganMoumita I don't think you'll see any restriction on meat production as long as A) the lobbies are so strong and B) people love meat.

@originnone I completely agree with point A. But nowadays lab-grown meat and eggs are getting popular. Yes the price is damn high but the process have already been started. So hopefully this is a good change 😊

@VeganMoumita I'd be all for it. In fact if fish were less expensive I would absolutely be pescatarian.

@originnone depends on the fish you are eating. Mainly salmon, tuna & other deep sea water fish are expensive all over the water. But if you will have sweet water fish then they are quite cheap comparatively & easily available as well. Quite healthier compared to sea fish as they have high mercury compared to fresh water or sweet water fish which is not so good for our brain function

@VeganMoumita I actually eat a lot of both. Salmon is good for reduction of cholesterol....
