The issue I care about is improving health and the environment by consuming and buying less animal products. The dairy and meat industries are large proponents of animal abuse and mistreatment. In order to minimize, it is crucial that humans are going more plant based. The change I want to make is to have our UT students reduce the amount of meat, dairy, and animal products they consume every day. This issue matters to me because going plant based will prevent a large amount of animal slaughter and suffering. In addition, it will improve health and prevent heart diseases by decreasing the amount of meat and dairy consumed.
