Inani elandayo labantu emazweni omhlaba wokuqala liba ngabaguquguqukayo, okungukuthi, abantu abasadla inyama (futhi ngenxa yalokho abangewona imifino), kodwa bazama ukunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwabo futhi babheke ngentshiseko izitsha ezintsha zemifino.
Ukusabela kulo mkhuba, inani lezindawo zokudlela ezidla imifino nemifino liyaqhubeka nokukhula. Abadla imifino bathola izinsiza ezingcono kunakuqala. Ngokukhula kwama-flexitarians, izindawo zokudlela zandisa iminikelo yazo yemifino.
“Ngokomlando abapheki bebengawuthakaseli kangako abantu abadla imifino, kodwa lokho kuyashintsha,” kusho umpheki ozinze eLondon u-Oliver Peyton. “Abapheki abasebasha basiqaphela kakhulu isidingo sokudla imifino. Bayanda abantu abakhetha ukudla kwemifino kulezi zinsuku futhi kuwumsebenzi wami ukubaphakela.” Okubhebhethekisa lo mkhuba ukukhathazeka kwezempilo, kanye nomonakalo wemvelo owenziwa yimboni yenyama nobisi, futhi osaziwayo bakhuluma ngakho kakhulu.
UPeyton nedlanzana labapheki bajoyine umkhankaso kaSir Paul McCartney othi “Meat Free Monday” ukuze bakhuthaze abantu abaningi ukuthi banciphise ukudla inyama ngomzamo wokunciphisa ukufudumala komhlaba. Umbiko wakamuva we-UN uthi imboni yemfuyo inomthelela omkhulu ekushiseni komhlaba ngaphezu kwazo zonke izindlela zokuthutha zihlangene.
Omunye umpheki waseLondon, u-Andrew Darju, uthe iningi lamakhasimende esitolo sakhe sokudla imifino iVanilla Black ngabantu abadla inyama abafuna izinhlobo ezintsha zokudla. Futhi akuzona nje izindawo zokudlela ezilandelela ukwanda kwesidingo sokudla kwemifino. Imakethe ethatha indawo yenyama ithengise u-£739 million ($1,3 billion) ngo-2008, ikhuphuke ngamaphesenti angu-2003 isuka ku-20.
Ngokocwaningo lwemakethe oluvela eqenjini leMitel, lo mkhuba uzoqhubeka. Njengabantu abaningi abadla imifino, abanye beFlexitarian nabo bakhuthazwa ukuhlupheka kwezilwane ezisetshenziselwa ukudla, futhi osaziwayo nabo bayakusekela ukugwema inyama ngenxa yalesi sizathu. Isibonelo, umzukulu womguquli u-Che Guevara usanda kujoyina umkhankaso wabezindaba wemifino i-People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
