Sustainability is a term commonly used nowadays in every aspect of life. After all, sustainability is what will help our planet Earth in the long run. Preservation of animals and wildlife is a crucial aspect of sustainability.
Today, on World Animals Day, we will shed light on ethical practices for animals during clinical experiments. The rapid loss of biodiversity and ecosystems is one of the most serious threats that humanity is currently facing. The ever-increasing infrastructure, use of non-renewable energy resources, and climate change have made wildlife conservation a huge challenge. Moreover, since the beginning of time, the hunting of animals for their fur, leather, horns, body organs, and much more has caused problems.
They have been used as means of entertainment in gruesome ways. It is high time that we focus more on their wellbeing and conservation now. Powerful NGOs and governments should join hands and work on wildlife management. Starting multiple project initiatives will ensure adequate participation and help us reach our goal of saving mother Earth. Sadly, at the rate at which wildlife conservation is declining, our future generations won’t have anything left. You might have heard about the word cruelty-free.
Do you know what it means?
Any product manufactured without being tested on animals. Commercial and cosmetic products are well-known to use unethical clinical experiments for the testing of their products on animals. Putting harmless animals through this torture just to get your favourite products isn’t worth it. Fortunately, many brands are now trying to improve their ways by cutting such practices and focusing on creating cruelty-free and vegan products. You can play your part by doing your research before purchasing commercial items. Look out for brand packaging that mentions cruelty-free with a bunny logo and always check ingredient lists.
Speak up against organizations that promote unethical animal testing. Boycott them if you must! Eradicating these practices from our society is possible only when the masses come together. From wildlife management experts to common people like us, we all must play our roles. We have a long way to go, so animal preservation leading to sustainability cannot be delayed any longer!
