Factory farming helps provide jobs to people in need of them because it is such a huge industry. With all the animals they have, they have the ability to make food cheaply and efficiently, and still have money left over to pay their workers and make profit. If they have extra money they sometimes invest in the communities in which they operate in, as a thank you type thing.
2006, the equivalent of 2 billion half-liter bottles of water were shipped to U.S. ports, creating thousands of tons of global warming pollution and other air pollution. In New York City alone, the transportation of bottled water from western Europe released an estimated 3,800 tons of global warming pollution into the atmosphere. In California, 18 million gallons of bottled water were shipped in from Fiji in 2006, producing about 2,500 tons of global warming pollution.
Plastic water bottles should be banned because even though they are portable, many places don’t have recycling barrels. So, people throw about 80% of them away. Plastic takes 1,000’s of years to biodegrade, so it takes up valuable landfill space and leaks toxic additives into the ground water. The bottles produce about 1.5 million tons of plastic waste per year. Plus, it takes about 47 million gallons of oil per year to produce that much plastic. Even if the bottles don’t make it into the trash they still end up in our oceans and animals mistake it for food, poisoning, choking, or killing them. So, why kill the environment and animals for something that isn’t even better than tap water?
