How Meat Consumption Decimates Tropical Forests

The hamburger patty industry daily provides over 25 million people worldwide with industrialized ground beef and is expanding rapidly with aggressive marketing campaigns bit(e) by bit(e) around the globe. This industry forces every culture it touches into the rhythm of industrialized food, the rhythm of the concrete jungle of the “Beautiful New World”. The people of the poor “Third World” are victims in two ways: as customers and as providers of the raw material for the food industry and its agribusiness, which cause long-lasting damage to the environment.
