EARTHLINGS is a feature length documentary about humanity’s absolute dependence on animals (for pets, food, clothing, entertainment, and … all » scientific research) but also illustrates our complete disrespect for these so-called “non-human providers.” The film is narrated by Academy Award nominee Joaquin Phoenix (GLADIATOR) and features music by the critically acclaimed platinum artist Moby.

I think everyone ought to watch this documentary. After watching it, I had stopped eating meats for a week long (just simply horrified by the video). Everytime I smell something fishy in pork, my mind just flashback to the pig farm in the video, that’s so disturbing. I had dissect animals, I had seen real life operation, those don’t freak me out. This video, just freaking disgusting. I’m disgusted by how those people act in the video (though not every meat farm are acting like that). The part that upset me the most is some dude just throw a healthy living dog into the truck and crushed it to death.

After watching the video, I wondered are those meats Americans’ daily meats supply? Are those meats leading to Americans’ obesity? Are those meats the contributors to the dysfunction of many Americans’ brains and making them ignorant?
