Sei, kana nyama ichikuvadza zvakadaro, hurumende haitore matanho ekudzivirira vanhu? Uyu mubvunzo wakanaka, asi hausi nyore kupindura.
Kutanga, vezvematongerwo enyika vanongova vanhuwo zvavo sezvatiri. Nenzira iyi, Mutemo wekutanga wezvematongerwo enyika usagumbura vanhu vane mari uye vane simba uye vanogona kutora simba kubva kwauri. Mutemo wechipiri usaudze vanhu nezvezvinhu zvavasingade kuziva.kunyangwe vachida ruzivo urwu. Kana iwe ukaita zvinopesana, ivo vanongovhotera mumwe munhu.
Indasitiri yenyama yakakura uye ine simba uye vanhu vazhinji havadi kuziva chokwadi nezvekudya nyama. Nezvikonzero zviviri izvi, hurumende haina chairi kutaura. Iri ibhizimusi. Zvigadzirwa zvenyama ndiyo yakakura uye ine pundutso yedivi rekurima uye indasitiri ine simba. Kukosha kwezvipfuyo muUK chete kwakatenderedza £20bn, uye pamberi peiyo 1996 bovine encephalitis scandal, nyama yemombe kunze kwenyika yaive £ 3bn gore rega rega. Wedzera kune izvi kugadzirwa kwehuku, nyama yenguruve uye turkey uye makambani ose anogadzira zvigadzirwa zvenyama zvakadai se: burgers, nyama pie, sausages nezvimwe zvakadaro. Tiri kutaura pamusoro pemari yakawanda.
Hurumende ipi neipi inoedza kunyengerera vanhu kuti vasadye nyama inozokanganisa purofiti yemakambani enyama, ayo achashandisa simba rawo kurwisa hurumende. Zvakare, rudzi urwu rwezano ruchave rusingafarirwe nehuwandu hwevanhu, ingofunga kuti vangani vanhu vaunoziva vasingadyi nyama. Ingori chirevo chechokwadi.
Indasitiri yenyama inopedzawo mazakwatira emari ichishambadza zvinhu zvayo, ichitaura kubva paTV nemabhodhi ezviziviso izvo, sezvinofungidzirwa, ndezvemuzvarirwo uye zvakakodzera kuti munhu adye nyama. Komisheni yeMeat and Livestock yakabhadhara £ 42 mamiriyoni kubva pakutengesa kwegore negore uye kushambadzira bhajeti kune kambani yeterevhizheni yeBritish yezvishambadziro zvinonzi "Nyama Yekurarama" uye "Nyama ndiyo Mutauro weRudo". Terevhizheni inoratidza zvishambadzo zvinokurudzira kudyiwa kwehuku, dhadha neTurkey. Kune zvakare mazana emakambani akazvimirira anoita pundutso kubva muzvigadzirwa zvenyama: Sun Valley neShiri Eye Chicken, McDonald's neBurger King Burgers, Bernard Matthews nenyama yakaomeswa nechando yaMatson, Danish Bacon, zvichingodaro, rondedzero yacho haiperi.
Zvitsama zvikuru zvemari zvinoshandiswa pakushambadzira. Ini ndichakupa muenzaniso mumwe - McDonald's. Gore rega rega, McDonald's inotengesa madhora zviuru zana nemakumi masere emamiriyoni emahamburgers kumaresitorendi 18000 kutenderera pasirese. Uye pfungwa ndeiyi: Nyama yakanaka. Wakambonzwa here nyaya yePinocchio? Pamusoro pechidhori chehuni chinouya kuhupenyu uye chinotanga kunyengedza munhu wose, nguva dzose paanoreva nhema, mhino yake inowana zvishomanana, pakupedzisira mhino yake inosvika pakukura kunoshamisa. Nyaya iyi inodzidzisa vana kuti kunyepa kwakaipa. Zvingava zvakanaka kuti vamwe vakuru vanotengesa nyama vaverengewo nyaya iyi.
Vagadziri venyama vanokuudza kuti nguruve dzavo dzinoda kugara mumatanga anodziya umo mune chikafu chakawanda uye hapana chikonzero chekunetseka nezvemvura kana kutonhora. Asi munhu upi noupi akarava pamusoro pegarikano yemhuka achaziva kuti idzi inhema dzakajeka. Nguruve dzemapurazi dzinogara mukushushikana uye dzinogara dzichipenga kubva muhupenyu hwakadai.
Muchitoro changu, chikamu chezai chine denga rakapfirirwa nehuku dzematoyi pamusoro payo. Mwana paanodhonza tambo yacho, rekodhi yehuku inoridzwa. Matireyi emazai akanyorwa kuti “achangobva kupurazi” kana kuti “mazai manyoro” uye ane mufananidzo wehuku mumafuro. Idzi ndidzo nhema dzaunotenda. Pasina kutaura shoko, vanogadzira vanokuita kuti utende kuti huku dzinogona kudzungaira zvakasununguka seshiri dzesango.
"Nyama yekurarama," anodaro mutengesi. Idzi ndidzo dzandinoti nhema dzehafu. Ehe, unogona kurarama nekudya nyama sechikamu chekudya kwako, asi ingani nyama ichatengeswa nevagadziri kana vakataura chokwadi chese: “40% yevanodya nyama vari panjodzi yegomarara” kana kuti “50% yevanodya nyama vangangove nechirwere chemwoyo.” Zvinhu zvakadaro hazvishambadzirwe. Asi nei munhu upi noupi angada kuunza masirogani akadaro okushambadza? Shamwari yangu inodiwa yezvinomera, kana ramangwana rezvinomera, mhinduro kumubvunzo uyu iri nyore - mari!
Imhaka yemabhiriyoni emapaundi ayo hurumende inogamuchira mumitero?! Saka unoona, kana mari ichibatanidzwa, chokwadi chinogona kuvanzwa. Zvokwadi isimbawo nekuti kana waziva zvakawanda, zvinotonyanya kuoma kukunyengera.
«Ukuru hworudzi nokukura kwarwo kwetsika zvinogona kutongerwa pahwaro hwemabatiro anoita vanhu mhuka... Nzira chete yekurarama ndeyekurega kurarama."
