Church‚ mass‚ the day dedicated to the creator‚ are all examples of what most of the people do every Sunday;

    Cow and Pig Manures

    • 3 Pages

    Cow and Pig Manures While cows eat many of the same plants eaten by horses‚ weed seeds do not survive in a cow’s digestive system. Cattle (along with goats‚ sheep‚ deer‚ and some other animals) are ruminants that have a system of two stomachs to double-digest their food. Cattle manure is often collected as a slurry‚ does not have bedding materials mixed in with it‚ and will break down easily. For these reasons‚ cow manure is better than horse manure in a compost pile. Nitrogen level is lower than

    No Happy Cows Summary

    • 304 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The three chapters in the book‚ No Happy Cows‚ mentioned a lot of products we use every day that are made unethically. Like Chocolate‚ coffee beans‚ and milk. The way the companies make those products are unethical. Children are used to work‚ but are hardly paid. Cows are put under harsh conditions. I don’t think I will buy any more products from these companies that don’t treat people or animals well. They do so many things just to earn more money for themselves‚ but at the cost of others.

    Harris Reflection

    • 509 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The Harris video is so interesting to me‚ I am shocked that it took so long for someone to make the connections between trauma and behavior. When I say someone‚ I really mean medical professionals (or studies being conducted). I feel that teachers have made these connections for a long time (at least in my opinion).
