The Relationship between Meat Consumption and Agricultural Sustainability
Biographies
Researcher 1:
Hello everyone, this is Luna. I am 20 years old now and have been studying at Vantage College for nearly a year. For our topic, firstly, to be honest, I do not eat meat very much. I prefer vegetables and seafood to meat. If let me list one of my favorite meats, then I choose to eat fish. Based on what I learned from research, I reduced the intake of meat, and even reduced the intake of some seafood to protect the sustainable development of agriculture.

Hello, this is Jade Hu, a co-investigator from group 17. My hometown is Hunan Province, China. Through this study, I learned about the damage to agricultural sustainability caused by excessive meat consumption. In the future, I plan to change my eating habits and choose meats and products that are beneficial to agricultural sustainability. I have always liked to eat chicken before, because of some health reasons. Through this research, I learned that the carbon emissions of chickens are not very large. It is a sustainable meat. I think I will choose to eat chicken more in the future.

Hello, this is Sylvia, and I am 19 years old. My hometown is Jiaxing, which is a small city in Zhejiang Province in China. I have enjoyed the study at Vantage College. Especially when I do the research project, I have learned a lot through the research study. Our group is interested in the sustainable development of the environment. And when we learned that meat consumption has a close relationship with agricultural sustainability, we decide to do a research about it. After this research project, I learned more about people's thoughts about this topic. And I decide to reduce my meat consumption and share this knowledge with my family.
Introduction to our project
The purpose of this study is to observe the attitude of international students on their daily eating habits, which is linked with agricultural sustainability. We would like to know the perspectives from participants of the relationship between agricultural sustainability and meat consumption, which is important for us to speculate the future trend of meat consumption.
