Numerous data show that the development of animal husbandry will consume a large amount of water resources and crops, resulting in water shortages and insufficient food supply.
Animal emissions pollute water and air, creating staggering carbon emissions
Being vegetarian itself is an effort to protect the environment and is the first choice for becoming a low-carbon expert.

4. Vegetarianism and Compassion
From the perspective of Buddhist practice, vegetarianism is a compassionate diet and respect and love for life.

The harm caused by food is often irreversible; harmful ingredients contained in food are often difficult to identify
How can we ensure food safety? We must start from the source and look for Find reliable suppliers to ensure the ingredients are natural and wholesome
2. Balanced nutrition
Many Buddhist practitioners feel that the body is a stinky bag and they can just eat whatever they want without being particular about it.
Modern people are so busy at work. If their nutrition cannot keep up for a long time, it will affect their health, cause obstacles to their own practice and life, and give the public a negative impression of vegetarianism and even Buddhism.
China has always had a tradition that "medicine is not as good as food tonic". Modern research also believes that food is the best medicine.

Be compassionate and altruistic
Based on this motivation, cooking can become a practice of loving-kindness. Thoughts may seem invisible, but they are actually very powerful.
