So what can we do?

You may be asking yourself, "What can we do to stop factory farms?" Well, there is many suggestions to helping to stop factory farms. Some are for people who do not want to change their ways and some for people who are up to a little change in their lives.

For instance, people who do not want to change their lifestyle can do little things even and that would help stop factory farms. They can start shopping at the organic section in their supermarket that they usually go to. Or even go to an all organic supermarket and find a lot of the same options there.

For people who are looking for change or just even want to try it, there are many options for you as well. For example, you can start looking into organic restaurants such as chipotle. To do this though you would have to cut out bad restaurants such as McDonald's. In addition, you can only go to an organic supermarket and try out many new foods there. Most importantly, you can get the word out there that factory farming is wrong, and we need to make changes.

So what are some factory farming alternatives?

All of these stores and or restraunts that I have talked about are great factory farming alternatives. They show that you do not need factory farming to make good money. All you need is a product that is of good quality. Plus, they are even healthy for you which a lot of people would actually prefer. Yes, fast food and factory farmed food is cheaper. However, after awhile organic food and such will go down because of supply and demand. Also, the cost of medical bills will be less because you will be healthier. If you eat organic food, it will actually save you money in a long run.

If we get rid of factory farming, we have a lot of alternatives that we can turn to. I know that in a lot of city's it would be hard to get rid of the factory farms because there is a lot of people and not as much space for farms. My idea is that we can ship food across america. A lot of states have a lot of farm land. We have a great transportation system that we can use.
