I am so appalled by your recent cover story.

Until now, I was led to believe your publication was compassionate and forward-thinking, yet your ignorance to this issue certainly proves otherwise.

Not only is eating meat inhumane, which you clearly don't care about, but it's one of the worst things for the environment. It's a fact that being a vegetarian or reducing meat consumption leaves a lighter carbon footprint than driving a hybrid, which is probably what half your staff have sitting the parking lot. If you don't have a heart, at least use your head and do the math.

I doubt any of the staff on your photo shoot would have slaughtered Sonja with their own hands in order to eat the steak yet they so cheerfully seared. It's so disrespectful towards animals but I bet you have dogs roaming your office. What's the difference?

It's not a question of whether animals are intelligent, but do they suffer. And to me, suffering just doesn't taste good.

Grow up and stop seeking attention in such a negative way. I thought you were better than this.
