Meat Industry Lithospheres

As the human population grows, the demand for goods becomes increased. As a result, the biosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and the atmosphere are suffering the consequences. Studies show that humans are exhausting specific goods however, we are not recognizing the differences between satisfying our desires and products that are necessary for life. All of our consumption practices will eventually lead to unavailability of necessary resources. For example, scientists have estimated that we will run out of oil in approximately half a century. The meat industry is one of the most impactful consumption practices harming the four spheres.

Out of each of the spheres, there is enough evidence to prove the meat industry is impacting the biosphere the most. In general, the meat industry is murdering animals in which directly impacts the biosphere. The majority of the human population demands meat and consumes meat products resulting to the large demand of meat. Additionally, pollution from factories and transportation allows alternate resources to become contaminated, such as food and water that animals need to survive. Lastly,
This is a result of the extensive amount of pollution the is being emitted into the atmosphere due to the meat industry. Did you know 45% of the world’s global land is occupied by livestock systems? As a result transportation, factories, and all tools used in the process contribute to a large percentage of the world’s pollution. Greenhouse gasses being emitted into the atmosphere cause extensive harm to the environment. This is so important because we are polluting our environment and the meat industry is a key variable in that process. If we continue to emit harmful gasses and pollution into the environment soon we will face the consequences such as global warming (from CO2), melting of glaciers, and sea levels to rise, all in severely affect the four
