My name is Radu Stefan and I live in Curtea de Arges, Romania.

I belive that the most valuable thing in a society is respecting the beings around us. Among all the beings around us the domestic animals have by far the most miserable life. Sometimes they are treated well during their lives sometimes not, but eventually they end up being slaughtered for our consumption. Once they arrived in a farm or in a slaughterhouse their fate is sealed, they do not have the slightest chance to survive (unlike wild animals). I would like to stop this slaughter as much as possible.

In my opinion combining the vegetarian lifestyle with the adoption of a domestic animal such as pig, hen, goat etc. would be really helpful.

We often get to hear people saying: there are much more important things than the fate of these animals, such as work, study, etc. Most certainly none of these aspects of life must be neglected, but adding care and respect for the environment will make our life fulfilled.

My plan (which of course may have shortcomings and should be improved, I am open to any suggestion whatsoever) is as follows:
To establish a school, which will combine the usual study with care and interest for domestic animals. The sole aim is not to reach a level of knowledge but also to shape a character. If you manage to perform such an activity in your own country, would be wonderful. I wish we could gather and establish such an institution together, if possible.

The rule to attend classes would be: vegetarian lifestyle and adoption of a domestic animal.

Otherwise if you can convince your friends to become vegetarian or if you can promote vegetarianism by another method, please do it.
