INTERVIEW I2: MS. BRIGHDE (VEGAN)INTERVIEW #1:

1. How did you successfully arrange the Vegan Lunch last year?The school cafeteria was very helpful. We did food testing before the actual day to make sure they taste good and also for them to get feedback. Advertising the event as well as educating the community about it also plays a big part.

2. How long have you been a vegan?Ms. Brighde has been a vegetarian since she was 10 and has been a vegan for three and a half years. She thought she as helping the animals but after she watched a movie about cruelty in the dairy farm, for leather, feathers and other animal parts, she became a vegan.

3. Why do you choose to go meatless?She wanted to become meatless to become the voice of the animals and to help them. It is also because adopting the plant-based diets have health and environmental benefits. She was also convinced by hard facts and evidence from listening to podcast everyday.

4. How do you convince others to go meatless?a) To show people that vegan food taste good and that they are not missing out anything if they eliminate meat from their dietb) Statistics and raising awarenessc) Showing them the cruel realityMs. Brighde often brings vegan food to events to demolish the belief that vegan food doesn’t taste good. By doing this, she is promoting veganism.

5. If I were to work together with the caterer and organize meatless Monday, what advice would you give?Have a food committee that meets up regularly, plan a great proposal, convince the school to open their minds, do it gradually and change the many often.

6. How do you eat when you’re dining out if you’re a vegan?There are alternatives for everything. For example, you can make your own cheese. There are also great restaurants and most of them would gladly leave out the dairy or meat but we just have to speak up. There is ‘Loving Heart’ restaurant in Plaza Semanggi and ‘Vegan Food Court’ in Senayan City; it’s actually really easy here!

7. What sources would you recommend me looking into?a) Vegetarian food for thought podcastb) PETA.org teen sectionc) Vegan outreach flyers and brochuresd) Vegfund.orge) Henhouse.orgf) Forks over Knives Documentaryg) Vegucated Documentary

INTERVIEW #2

1. What kind of emails do you often receive? What is it about? How many emails per day?Mostly about their problems: for example when they’re in the army or when their family is not being supportive. She often get around 4 emails a day.

2. Would it be better to eat meat leftovers than to let it go to waste?She personally wouldn’t eat it because she won’t eat meat and she thinks it will send others a mixed message.

3. If everyone were to convert to vegetarianism, what would happen to the balance of nature?She thinks this is just an excuse and that some people are being very defensive if they bring this up. It is because we breed them that the animals are ‘overflowing’ if it happens by nature, it won’t be happening. There will also be the supply and demand and there won’t be any disturbance to the balance of nature. She also adds that we are not carnivores but omnivores that eat a small amount of meat.

4. How would you respond to the excuse: “but they’re already dead”? They’re dead because we killed them.

5. How does one person make a difference?She emphasizes the fact that the lives of these animals are terrible and that everyone makes a difference. One could make a greater impact because from that, her family becomes vegan and then her friends. It becomes a lifestyle and now veganism is quite mainstream.

6. How do we make sure we’re getting the nutrients that we need?It’s just a myth that protein can only be found in animal foods. It can be found in beans, tofu, tempeh, lentils, plants and more. She said that the ion deficiency in vegan can be equally found in a normal meat-eater. She recommend me to go to veganhealth.org because it stores all the information on getting all the nutrients that we need.

7. Where do you shop for your food?She would go to giant and once in a while go to ranch market and kemcik in pacific place or grand lucky.

8. How do you prepare your food with the shortest time possible?She often make rice or sauce on a monday so it can last for the whole week. She often eat leftovers because and divide the meals in half to save time. She usually dedicate around half an hour to make a meal.

9. What do you do to keep your belly satisfied when you’re going to a place with no vegan food?She suggest to bring snacks such as carrots and celery with nut or almond butter, banana, Pb&J, granola bars and hummus.

10. How can I successfully establish a meatless monday?a) Email the leadership teamb) Meet with the catererc) Have recipes for them ready to god) Make a step-by-step process by making the food better (e.g. soymilk, tofu dish and more vegan dish in the menu)

Ms. Brighde basically thinks that a lot of us are miseducated on the idea that if we go vegan, we can’t get enough protein. She said not to worry about it because protein be found pretty much everywhere. She also gave me some sources to look into and suggested me to talk to the senior leadership team and the caterer as soon as possible and the best part is that she is willing to help me implement meatless monday.

INTERVIEW I3: DR. WARDOYO, SP.PD (INTERNAL MEDICINE)1. What do we need to maintain a healthy diet?a) carbohydratesb) fatsc) proteind) vitamins and mineralsThere are 2 types of sources to get the nutrients; from plants and from animals. The ones for plants include tahu, tempeh, beans, fruits and vegetables.

2. What disease is most likely to occur when consuming too much meat?Cholesterol. There are 2 types of fats which is saturated and unsaturated. The saturated ones are mostly from animals and that is what causes cholesterol. The unsaturated fat is the one he recommends, which can be found in corn oil, olive oil and sunflower oil.

3. What disease is most likely to occur when you decide to adapt a plant-based diet?There should be no disease unless the way of eating is wrong and the diet is unhealthy.

INTERVIEW I4: MS JANE ROSS (IBOOK)1. How many ibooks have you published in the Itunes store? How many Ibooks have you helped publish in the itunes store?Published 5, help 7 students publish their Ibooks

2. What makes a successful ibook?Good content, something interesting and different, lots of drawings and is creative. The cover has the be eye-catching and there should be a lot of interaction between the book and the audience but the most important thing is the content.

3. What are your favorite ibooks?Life on Earth (new version) and Marie Claire Magazine

4. What is the biggest challenge of creating an ibook?Getting good photographs because we have to watch out for the copyright. It is recommended to take your own pictures. Another challenge is to make the book interesting enough to get people to interact with it.

5. Are there any sources you recommend me looking into?Open University in the UK has great Ibook examples.

6. How can I get my book published in the Itunes?First we need to make an itunes account and make an itunes connect. From then, they will look at it and decide whether or not it should be published. It usually takes 5 hours to 6 weeks.

7. What application would you recommend me using?Since mine is mostly writing and content, she recommended me to use ibooks author.

Ms. Jane is a certified Apple Development Educator. She is part of the leadership team in the prestigious conference in ireland about Ibooks. From that conference, she gets to give inputs on ibooks author and what should be in the next edition. She also agreed to help me make and publish my ibooks which is an amazing thing! She wants me to start thinking of the content because that’s the most important part.

Fun fact: Peter (currently in grade 11) made his Ibook for his personal project in 3 days!

INTERVIEW I5: RICHARD WATTS (VEGAN BODY BUILDER)1. How do you become a vegan body builder in the most convenient way? (e.g. easily accessible food, same training, etc)Staples for vegan bodybuilding are all easily accessible. Most people will recommend:• broccoli, kale, spinach• kidney beans (and all other kinds of beans)• sweet potatoes, avocado• fruits especially banana• walnuts, almonds, cashews• brown rice, oats, whole brain bread or pasta• soy and tofu productsYou can go for protein powders such as soy, pea, hemp, rice and so on which are vegan. Creatine is vegan if you find that helps your grains. Training as a vegan should be identical to training as a non-vegan. Depending on your goals - if you're aiming for size and strength, then you're looking at high weight, lower reps, power-based compound movements like dead lifts, bench press, squats, shoulder press etc. If you're looking to cut, then consider mid range reps, slightly lower weight, and cardio and so on.

2. Which way is easier for body building; the normal way or the vegan way?A vegan diet and a non-vegan diet are not black and white.  You can take two non-vegans and their diets might be completely different, and likewise, you can take two vegans and compare their diets and find them to be nothing alike.  So to compare a vegan and a non-vegan, it's quite a wide variety of diets you'd be looking at, and it isn't simple.  Personally, I've only ever lifted weights as a vegan, so I can't tell you what it would be like to eat any amount of meat and lift weights.  But if you look at the profiles on the site, you can see examples of people who were lifting weights, then went vegan - and nobody says it made it harder.  A few people talk about feeling less bloated, having more energy and so on, but really it depends what your diet is like.  You could sit around eating chips and cakes all day as a vegan, and I'm sure you'd feel tired and washed out.  I believe that any diet - vegan or non-vegan - should always be based upon fresh fruit and vegetables.  You can't be healthy without that, and you'll face health problems if you are eating primarily animal products.

3. How do you respond to the stereotype that being vegan is often portrayed as ‘weak’?I find it a bit depressing that vegans are portrayed as being weak.  It seems like a way to make people feel better about themselves, like if you try to do the right thing for animals, then yo sacrifice your own health.  It's nonsensical.  People who meet me face to face never say that, and are often surprised that I am vegan because I am in good shape.  Online, if anybody starts up with it, I just post a photo of myself, or a photo of someone else from veganbodybuilder.com and then that's the end of it.  I also think that hardly anybody genuinely experiments with a vegan diet.  Presumably they think that they'd get ill or become frail over night, but actually I noticed no difference upon becoming vegan.

4. Do you recommend others adopting a vegan diet in terms of health and well-being?

I definitely recommend veganism as a healthy lifestyle.  As I said above, no matter what you're doing, you've got to focus on fruit and vegetables, especially green vegetables.  They are a goldmine of vitamins and minerals.  Milk especially is very bad for your body.  It is a food that calves drink while they are growing, and then they stop drinking it when they grow to adulthood.  We don't even drink the milk of our own species beyond infancy, so drinking the milk of another species, it should be obvious that it's crazy, and our bodies find it hard to process.

5. What limitations can being vegan impact our work-outs and our health in general? I personally don't know of any limitations that veganism can put on work-outs... Just eat enough, that's the main thing.  If you're eating a plant-based diet, with foods that are low in calories, then you'll need more of them to reach your requirements.  But so long as you are reaching your nutrition requirements, you will have no problem in the gym.  As for health and well-being, once again, the key to health is fresh fruit and vegetables, supplemented with a few nuts or seeds.  There's no reason why veganism should be bad for you - it is only the absence of animal products.  It's up to you to choose a diet which is also healthy, but the absence of animal products is only a good thing.

I’m really happy that Richard Watts replied to my email just a few hours after I sent it. The best thing is that he forwarded this email to a few others to allow me to get more perspective on vegan body building. Even though they’re the same questions, it’s great that I get to get a different perspective. The information is definitely useful as I’m trying to reach different types of people in terms of veganism and body builders are definitely one of them. I myself am not a body builder nor do I ‘work-out’ however it’s good to know that being a vegan still allows you to do so.

INTERVIEW I6: RYAN WILSON (VEGAN BODY BUILDER)1. How do you become a vegan body builder in the most convenient way? (e.g. easily accessible food, same training, etc) I didn't find it much less convenient to be vegan and keep bodybuilding as I had in the past.  The only difference was that I was no longer eating meat or dairy, but my training was the same, and I simply changed out the animal-based foods for vegan meals and found that it did not have anynegative impact on my training and progress.

2. Which way is easier for body building; the normal way or the vegan way?I don't see bodybuilding as a vegan to be any more difficult than for someone who eats meat.  You may have access to more types of food and supplements if you are not vegan, but there are vegan options for everything a person needs to do great things in bodybuilding, so nothing critical is lacking from a vegan lifestyle for bodybuilders.

3. How do you respond to the stereotype that being vegan is often portrayed as ‘weak’?I usually just laugh when people say that you can't be strong as a vegan.  I have competed in both strongman and powerlifting and did fairly well in both types of competition (I did not spend a long time preparing for both types of competition, but did a few of each for the fun of tryingsomething new), both sports are dependent on being very strong, so I would have done poorly if being vegan had a negative impact on things.  The diet does not prevent anyone from being big or strong, rather, there just are not that many vegans who have gotten into weight training and

bodybuilding (yet!), so there is not a lot of publicity on those who have succeeded in their sport.  That will be changing over time now that there are many more people who are vegan AND are doing well with bodybuilding and strength sports.

4. Do you recommend others adopting a vegan diet in terms of health and well-being?

I most certainly recommend veganism for those who are interested in being healthy and feeling well.  I have felt MUCH better since giving up animal-based products, I have gotten in the best shape of my life, been the strongest, and have had far fewer health problems since that time.  Aside from the convenience of being able to eat at every restaurant, there is no downside to the change in lifestyle that I can think of.

5. What limitations can being vegan impact our work-outs and our health in general?

There are no limitations that veganism puts on anyone for workouts or health other than not being able to eat as many different foods.  Beyond convenience, there is no real "downside" to going vegan that I know of, as in 11 years of being vegan, I have had nothing but positive results.

This is thanks to Richard Watt’s forward. I’m really glad that he answered the forwarded email. I have looked at veganessentials.com and thought it’s a great source and I surely have thought in emailing them. At the end of the email, it writes “I hope this helps, and please let me know if I can assist with anything else!” so if I have any other questions on veganism, even outside body building, I can just reply to this email. So yay!

BOOKS B1: SHOULD WE EAT ANIMALS? BY ANDREW LANGLEYIt has both sides of the argument. The book also has the history of how men starts to eat meat. The book includes sources from experts on this topic to support the argument. It also includes numerical statistics, a discussion on the environmental factor and different view points. According to this book 50 billion animals are killed every year just for human consumption (this was back in 2008) I also found out from this book that I am a Lacto-Ovo-Vegetarian, which means I don’t eat meat but still eat eggs and dairy.

BOOKS B2: 500 GREATEST-EVER VEGETARIAN RECIPES BY VALERIE FERGUSONThis cookbook is includes various vegetarian ingredients, techniques to cook the food and a variety of dishes. Though I have no finished reading the book word-to-word, I have a pretty good idea of the food and have tried a couple of dishes myself. I think the best thing about this cookbook is that it has 500 recipes- which is a lot! The dishes in this cookbook is quite easy to prepare and doesn’t take a lot of time. It also features tip to make sure the food is cooked properly. It definitely is a well-compiled book.

This gives me the idea to put a few recipes in the Ibook. I could possibly pick one or two recipes from this cookbook, modify it and make it my own and feature it in my ibook. Even though this book features a variety of dishes, I don’t think it is a competent source to widen my understanding on vegetarianism.

BOOKS B3: VEGETARIAN BY ALICE HARTI am in love with this cookbook. Not only is it ‘aesthetically pleasing’, but it also has really good content, tips and recipes. By the way it looks itself, it’s really appealing to the readers (well, to me at least.) Let me list down the things that I love about this cookbook:

• Great photographs, illustration and choice of colors• Simple and readable font• Feature how-tos (e.g how to make yoghurt, nut milk, labne)• Consistent, simple but appealing layout• Features must-haves ingredients • Includes conversion charts (approximate protein equivalents in meat and vegetarian foods)• Dedicates 2 pages for famous vegetarians• Includes recipes from great chefs• Includes menu ideas • When you flip through the edges, you can see moving cartoons

PDF PD1: GO VEGETARIAN! GO VEGAN! BY PETAThe PDF is very informative and persuasive. It includes quotes from celebrities, answers from experts, statistics, recipes and true stories. The PDF is also filled with heart-breaking images of the animals. There definitely is a lot of informative that should persuade others to be a vegetarian including the ethics, health benefits, easy transitions andso on. The PDF is very colorful and has a lot of images which made it not boring. I especially find the health benefits information very useful because I think that’s why a lot of people won’t turn vegetarian. The recipes are also mouth-watering and I can’t wait to try them!

She is also concerned about students that are overweight and obsessed and the diseases that it might bring them. This PDF is filled with facts and basic nutritional information. She is also concerned that a lot of the students are not making the ‘right’ choice when it comes to food and she is hoping to get positive results and working together with the cafeteria team.

speaking for those animals and that she lives in the same society as they do. She feels that they need to respect the animals

P9 The Myth of the “Perfect Vegan”

• People mistakenly think that being Vegan is about being perfect so they resist any considerations of this lifestyle lest they have to give something up

• Being vegan is about living compassionately and expansively; it’s not aout deprivation or being certified 100% pure• They can’t do everything but they are doing something

P10 Eating Animals

• Stereotypes (E.g in parts of Asia, you eat dogs and cats) people think that eating dogs and cats are unethical simply because it’s not in their menu

• The animals are all domesticated to be that way• Judge other cultures for what they think is cruel despite their own commitment to cruelty. They’re all animals, their lives matter all the same• Colleen did an activity in her class by replacing the word ‘goat’ with ‘dogs’ and they seem to be more sympathetic. She thinks this is because

they might have a pet dog and might have a deeper relationship with them and thinks it is unethical if the ones being slaughtered are dogs.

P11 Favorite Foods: Non-Dairy Milks

P14 The Rise of Excuse-itarians

• No convincing reasons to consume meat• The consumption of meat, dairy, and eggs is ritualized, rationalized, disguised and romanticized that a group ‘excuse-itarians’ is formed• “The Emperor Has No Clothes” is a fable by Hans Christian Anderson- the story is that nobody is saying what’s true

P15 Transitioning to a Vegan Diet- or tips for eating healthfully• Includes tips and shortcuts to transitioning to a vegan diet• Offers suggestions for eating healthfully and more variations• Tip: If you’re hungry, just eat• People feel threatened if there’s a different lifestyle that’s why they respond with anger and hostility• Being Vegan isn’t about being perfect, it’s reducing suffering• Exploring, expanding, evolving

P16 Replacing Eggs in Cooking and Baking

• Chicken eggs are part of their menstrual cycle • An average American consumes 250 eggs a year• The average American eats 2485 chicken, 78 turkeys and ducks 33 pigs, 11 cows and sheep in their lifetime• Scrambled eggs can be replaced as scrambled tofu and spices, tofu benedict and sautee mushroom• Add pesto, salsa, fresh tomatoes• Egg salad can be replaced as tofu and eggless mayonnaise• Ground flaxseeds is recommended as they produce linen and they are a good source of omega3 fatty acids• An egg can be replaced by whisking a tablespoon of group flaxseed and 3 tablespoon water in blender• Half a banana equals an egg• According to Colleen, an egg is better than milk because an egg is part of the menstrual cycle whereas the milk is breastfeeding for their calf

P17 Talking Turkey

• Nonviolenceunited.org• Visited local farm animal sanctuary and meet cattle, pigs, bunnies, roosters, sheep, donkeys, goats and turkeys• The pigs are huge, donkeys gentle and goats are friendly but turkeys are the ones that transform people• They are overgrown due to overbreeding, affectionate, curious, sounds good, walk awkwardly. • They like to be rubbed under the belly and is white because the whiter the feather, the whiter the flesh• Slaughterhouses: punching and kicking, putting them in shackles, pretending to hump, swing, decapitate, play catch with the turkeys

PX An Essential Vitamin B12

• veganhealth.org • whole-foods plant based diet is the diet that she recommends• essential: our body don’t make the vitamins so it needs to come form our food• B12 doesn’t actually grow on meat but rather on bacteria and the bacteria are attached to corpses (in this case, meat)• Food like tempeh and spirulina contains B12 however it’s not always enough so she recommends us taking supplements• B12 protects nervous systems, help digestive system, prevents fatigue, blindness, loss of appetite, nausea and deafness. • 2.4 g for lactating women, 5-10mg per day of supplements is recommended

PX Responses to ‘I’m a Vegan’ and how to reply

• Scenario 1: Both vegan- nothing to worry about, happy• Scenario 2: The person is a vegetarian- nothing to worry about, happy• Scenario 3: Someone who eats chicken and fish but claims to be a vegetarian: remind them it’s not plants• Scenario 4: I’m vegan but I eat free range eggs and drink humane milk: there’s no such thing as humane or free range because at the end they’ll

suffer as well• Scenario 5: The person was a vegan but stopped being one because doctor and acupuncture says it’s not good for that person’s health even

though he/she begged: don’t go to someone who is biased and prejudiced against vegan. There are a lot of vegan wellness practitioners who would respect what you want or don’t want to it. Also, doctors and acupunctures have power because we give it to them. We should be able to dictate our own life and we don’t have to beg them to let us be vegan.

• Scenario 6: The person was vegan but wasn’t well but when that person goes back to eating meat again, he/she felt much better: it’s all got to do with calories because plant-based diets contain less calories = less energy. But instead of putting the fats, vegans are usually full and they get the calories that they need. She thinks it’s because they’re eating crap and they should eat whole-food plant based diets.

• Scenario 7: The person thinks he/she needs to participate in the food supply so he/she kills his/her food themselves: it’s still cruelty, the animals are going to be dead. Colleen thinks it’s scary to be around someone who kills.

• Reply: Respond to their words, create common ground, don’t put in too much info (a.k.a don’

PX Vegan Outreach to restaurants

• Sources to go to; colleenpatrickgoudreau.com, compassionate cook channel on youtube, the vegan table, yelp.com• Talk to the manager• Most chefs are trained in animal fats and consider vegan food is a different food group, some may laugh at vegans/vegetarians• They might struggle to see which food is vegan and which isn’t, use their menu as a starting point• Bring food samples for them to try • They don’t realize that most of their food can be ‘veganized’ easily• Recommend them putting symbols such as V for vegan or * for food that can be turned into vegan food in their menu• It all comes back to money so if we can assure them that vegan food brings in more money, they’ll really consider it• Always follow up with them and try to connect them with other restaurants so they can exchange notes and such

PX What do vegetarians feed their dogs and cats?

• Dogs and plant-based diet goes great together• There are many brands of vegetarian dog food• Cats aren’t very compatible with plant-based diet• Colleen feed her cats meat because she doesn’t want to take any chances as there are not enough studies on cats and plant-based diets• Her cat developed addison disease where her cat stops making adrenaline• Feeding plant-based diet to cats can risk forming crystal in their bladders and a tumor can grow but it’s mostly caused by vaccinations

DOCUMENTARY D1: FARM TO FRIDGEThe documentary is nearly 10 minutes long and in my opinion, it’s very powerful. It shows different kinds of animals and their condition in the slaughterhouses which is not a pretty image. Towards the end of the documentary, it encourages us to become a vegetarian. This video happens to be their resource that made me turn vegetarian and yes, it is cruel. I think re-visiting that helped me with the awareness and understanding of this toxic. Reading through the comments, I don’t think anyone is fond of this method. A lot of them say that they don’t want to give up the taste of meat- but there are alternatives that they are not aware of. I think this re-inspired me to make an informative and persuasive project because a lot

of us are not aware of what’s happening, the benefits and the alternatives. At the end, the video informed us that there is a website that the video is partnered with: chooseveg.com. Inside this resource, there are 4 sections that caught my eye: for the animals, for our earth, for your health and making the switch. This website also have more resources linked with it which I’m going to look on to.

DOCUMENTARY D12: EARTHLINGSEarthlings, in my opinion is a very powerful documentary and it covers not only animals for food but also in pets, clothings and entertainment. Even though I took notes on all 4 parts, I just want to focus on the part for food. First of all, the words used in the documentary is very powerful and so is the footage. When put together, it truly is spectacular!

According to the documentary, there are 3 stages of truth: ridicule, violent opposition and acceptance. It also links to the fact that earthlings are inhabitants of earth and that humans are subjected to ‘speciesism’ which is prejudice against other species even though they should be counted equally with other equal suffering of other beings. Just like racism and sexism, speciesism too is believed to be a big problem. Though animals and human beings are not completely similar, we do share some similarities: desire for food, water, companionship, freedom of movement and avoidance of pain. The movie also emphasizes on the fact that humans who have power exploit to those who lack it which in this case is directed to the animals. It was brought to my attention that if humans are strong enough to tackle racism and sexism, then why not speciesism? 10,000 animals are being slaughtered every minute and 6 billion slaughters are being executed in the US alone. Here are some notes I took during the movie on the process of extracting meat/seafood/dairy/eggs:

1. Branding- for beef, on face2. Dehorning- not with anesthetic but with pliers3. Transportation- on top of one another, heat, fatigue, trauma4. Milking- chained in their stalls, pesticides and antibiotics are used to increase milk productivity, collapse from exhaustion, shorten lifespan from

20 to 4 years5. Meat- brought into stalls and tight spaces6. Captive bolts- fires a steel bolt that is powered by compressed air on blank cartridge right into animal’s brain7. Bleeding- hoisted up, throat slit8. Knocking boxes- shot and then flipped9. Kosher slaughter- spinning, electric prods, aspirate blood or breath in after incision, ripping trachea from throat10.Veal- tied to their neck, iron-deficient liquid diet, denied bedding, slaughtered after 4 hours of being born11.Pigs- 50,000 and 600,000 a year being slaughtered12.Factory conditions- cannibalism, waste pits13.Tail docking- stressful living conditions, done with anesthetic14.Ear clipping15.Teeth cutting16.Castration- more fatty grade of meat17.Electric prods- handling18.Electrocution- for execution19.Throat slitting- least expensive way20.Boiling and hair removal- shackled, suspended on bleed trail, immersed in scalding tanks to remove bristle, submerged and drowned, twist

them

21.Poultry- americans consume as much chicken in a day as they did in an entire year in 193022.Debeaking- prevents pecking and cannibalism23.Living conditions- 60,000-90,000 birds in a single building24.Transportation- left to suffocate, overcrowded25.Slaughter- clubbed to death, heads cut off, conveyor belt, throat slit, head first26.Seafood- waste to the ocean27.Commercial fishing- huge nets28.Disease- pfiesteria poured into rivers, lakes, etc, level 3 biohazard (ebola is 4, aids is 2)29.Whaling- use harpoons, firearms, blunt hooks, explosives30.Dolphins- commercial fishing, cut open with machetes, left to suffocate

DOCUMENTARY D13: MAKE IT HAPPEN• “I had no idea, it’s a bombshell”• They thought animals are protected by the law to be provided with a life worth living since they wake up each day to suffer• Cheap prices = increased demands, the cheaper it is the crueler and the animal pay the price• More to climate change than all the world’s plane• 1/3 cereal harvest served for farm animals is enough to feed 3 billion people in a world where 1 billion is hungry• Factory farming is to meet consumer demand

The footage in the documentary is very powerful. I really like the length of the movie and the fact that it has a lot of people that talked about factory farming. This is a good example in terms of the power of pictures and videos as the video doesn’t have a lot of facts and statistics.

FLYERS AND BROCHURE F2: PRIMER STROKE Pencegahan Primer Stroke (Primary Prevention of Stroke)

Avoid eating fatty food and cholesterol as they increase the probability of getting stroke. It is recommended to seeds such as bulgur, corn, wheat, soy and other nuts. Also eat as food rich with vitamins and antioxidant such as vitamin C, E, beta-carotene that can be found in seeds, vegetables and fruits.
