Some people choose to eat no meat or fish. They believe that this is not only better for their own health but also benefits the world as a whole. Discuss this view and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Nowadays, a lot of people decided to be vegan or vegetarian not only because they prefer vegetables for their diet but

also

because they believe that it could affect positively the health condition of the world. Personally, I agree with them, in the following essay I will explain why.

Firstly

, the production of meat and

fish

is really expensive in terms of cost to the environment. Our planet has a limited resource of sweet

water

.

However

, farming is one of the activities that need the most quantity of

water

.

For instance

, cows drink a lot of

water

.

In addition

, they need to eat a lot of crops that

also

need space and

water

to grow.

Moreover

, focusing on

fish

farming, it seems that eating

this

kind of food is unhealthy. As a matter of fact,

fish

are closed inside huge cages where they don’t have the space to swim.

For

this

reason, they often get ill.

For example

, it always happens that farmers give medicine to their animals in order to maintain them healthy.

To sum up

, there are several reasons to decide not to eat meat and

fish

. Some of them are connected with the respect of the environment. Other with the influence that

this

food could have on health. Even if I’m not vegetarian or vegan, I believe that putting a limitation on meat and

fish

consumption is key to respecting our bodies and the planet.
