ABSTRACT

​

This has been one of my favorite subjects to talk and debate about for the past four years of my life, that's why after thinking of many options about what my research work's topic was going to be, I chose my favorite one, Vegetarianism.

​

In this research work, I wanted to see how vegetarianism was in my surroundings, how many people were following this diet, how many of them were considering to start it, and most of all, I wanted to know what they thought about it.

​

Since vegetarianism is not only a moral and ethical decision to make in your life, but also a way of helping the planet earth survive, I was really interested in knowing if people were aware of the benefits of this diet.

​

In this project, apart from the research, I have done different interviews to different sectors I thought could be part of this topic. I have talked with vegetarians, I have talked with a restaurant to see how they handled it and I have talked with a business that has recently developed a new form of vegetal protein to see how they decided to contribute to this lifestyle. I also tried contacting a family of 11 that follow the Vegan diet, but they ended up not responding.

​

In conclusion of my research, I can happily confirm that vegetarianism is an excellent diet for you and the planet, it might take a little more effort to be aware and conscious of what you're eating, but in the end you'll be helping the planet and a lot of animals, if you do it correctly, it is also beneficial to your health and with good planning, your economy won't be affected by it!
