PETER SINGER
photo by alletta vaandering
Widely considered to be an infuential philosopher in the animal rights movement afer his book Animal Liberation was published in 1975, Peter Singer is the Ira W. DeCamp professor of bioethics at the University Center for Human Values at Princeton University. He has written, co-authored, edited or co-edited more than 50 books, including Why Vegan? and Te Way We Eat: Why Our Food Choices Matter.
Why is food an ethical issue?
Tere are several reasons for making food an ethical issue and changing what we’re eating. One is that producing food has an enormous impact on the environment. About 25 percent of all human greenhouse gas emissions come from food production. It’s also an enormous source of animal suffering. Over 70 billion animals are raised and killed each year worldwide, and the majority of them are in intensive factory farms. Teir lives are miserable for most of the time. And fnally, factory farms are breeding grounds for new viruses. We’ve had swine fu and avian fu coming out of factory farms. It’s quite possible that the next pandemic will originate there.
Is it unethical to contribute to climate change?
It’s impossible to live without contributing to climate change, but it’s unethical to unnecessarily contribute to climate change when you can live in a way that has a lower greenhouse gas footprint. You could say luxury emissions are unethical while survival emissions are necessary, and so one can’t regard them as unethical.
Peter Singer on
Ethical Eating
by Sandra Yeyati
What are the most important food choices that we can make from an ethical standpoint?
Avoiding animal products is probably the frst and most important ethical choice one can make. Tat’s going to dramatically lower your carbon footprint. You will no longer be complicit in the sufering of those tens of billions of factory-farmed animals, and you won’t be contributing to the increasing risks of viruses being bred in factory farms.
Is eating animals all right if they are raised humanely and don’t sufer when they are harvested?
If animals aren’t sufering and have good lives, that’s a big improvement from the point of view of the animals, but it doesn’t overcome other problems. Grass-fed cattle may have good lives, but they continue to emit large quantities of greenhouse gases, methane in particular. Is painless killing of an animal that has led a good life acceptable? Tere’s an argument that it is, that at least they had a life, otherwise they wouldn’t have existed at all, so it’s not wrong. People are going to accept or reject that. Tere isn’t a clear-cut answer. It’s a complicated issue, so that’s why I tend to focus on the fact that large-scale commercial rearing of animals inevitably causes sufering for them and exploits them. Yes, they can come from very small farms where animals are looked afer and cared for, but it won’t likely happen on a large commercial scale.
Is there a hierarchy of animals that might be ethically okay to eat?
I’m not really concerned about all animals in the zoological sense. I’m concerned about sentient beings or animals capable of sufering or enjoying their lives, and I don’t see that as necessarily coinciding with the boundary between plants and animals. So, oysters or clams or mussels, the simple bivalves, are clearly animals in zoological terms, but there’s good reason to believe that they don’t have a sufciently complicated nervous system to feel pain, and if that’s the case, then I don’t think there’s an objection to eating those animals as long as they are farmed or raised in a sustainable way that doesn’t harm the environment.
Are you hopeful that more people will adopt ethical eating habits in the future?
Te huge increase in the availability of vegan products pretty much around the world is a great sign of hope, because what we need to do is to reach a critical mass where these products are not only available, but are also comparative in cost with animal products. Once that day comes, I think we’ll get far more people switching, where they really don’t have to change their diet that much, they don’t have to spend that much more and they can avoid all these negative ethical aspects and be healthier themselves.

Past Life Regression Workshop with Certifed Hypnotherapist, Jacqueline LeClaire Wednesday, July 2, 5:30-7:30

Past life regression is a technique that uses hypnosis to recover memories of a past life (incarnation) and is typically used as a spiritual experience. • The person may view personal relationships in a new light, energize talents, reduce fears and traumas linked to a past life, and understand their life purpose. • Past life regressions can offer opportunities to explore agreements and relationships of past lives, and even offer an explanation of habitual behaviors. • Release old, negative energy and habits that no longer serve you and unleash new positive energy. During a past life regression you are in a deep state of relaxation. The guidance you receive will be much like a guided meditation, and will usually begin with progressive relaxation. You will be walked through a series of experiences that may be memories of past lifetimes. The “memories” themselves should be produced by your subconscious mind, and appear to you as if they were being revealed. Questions are asked and connections are made to and from the past.

For most people, the worst way to attempt to deal with a smoking habit is through the use of willpower. Like moods and emotions, willpower fuctuates. One day it is strong, the next day it may not be. Willpower is usually neither consistent nor effective. Among stop-smoking procedures there are countless methods, programs, apps, pills, chewing gum, self-help recordings, books and the list goes on. Many are designed to help build up the personal power to resist or overcome the addiction. Hypnotherapy does not work at achieving the strength to resist. It is designed to eliminate the desire. Instead of giving up something that a person enjoys (a sacrifce), the individual’s goal is to be rid of something that isn’t wanted – a much more agreeable position. Hypnosis is one of the safest and most effective ways to quit smoking permanently. We are very happy to say that the vast majority of the people who have used our program quit smoking after the very frst session. Most people experience little or no withdrawals or weight gain.

Weight Loss has rapidly become one of the most popular areas of hypnotic application. Most people who have struggled with losing weight have tried all kinds of diets, pills and gimmicks. Those who have discovered the effective use of hypnosis, often after failing with every other method they could think of, have been amazed by the comparative ease with which hypnosis has worked for them. One of the advantages of hypnosis is that since no enjoyable foods are denied, nothing is given up. There is no need or desire to return to foods that have been forbidden. The only difference is that, through the effects of hypnosis, a much lesser amount of food will be desired and consumed. It is a sensible way to lose weight and to keep it off without feeling deprived and miserable.
