April 5 at 11:17 AMIn my opinion I think one of the main reasons people eat more meat in the United States is because it is widely available for cheap.

April 3 at 9:18 AMwork and school I pledge to carpool to work with my roommate who work at the same location and carpool to Eden Hall Campus with my peers from Shadyside.
