Izzy Orange, I hope you will keep us up to date on your experience on an organic farm. Sounds exciting.
As for me, although one of my main concerns will always be the environment, I don't eat anything that has a face because of my love and respect for the animals. If I and those I love were starving, yes I would kill an animal and eat it. But mankind has so abused its power on this planet, and we've consequently moved so far away from eating for need or survival. It pains me so deeply to think of how animals are abused, and the impact this has on our collective unconscious. That is why I don't eat animals, and that is why I so much of my time is devoted to defending those who can't defend themselves.
