Vegetarianism
What Lobelia said. I try not to be a self righteous vegetarian, because I'm not perfect, but there's no excuse, in my opinion, for eating meat in rich societies like ours. The innocent suffering of animals who have no words to express their pain is the most terrible fact I know about the world. It disturbs me more than the suffering of men and women, which I can sometimes make a kind of sense of because it is never completely innocent.
