Stronger reason(s) to be or to become a vegetarian in the current age

Hi friends, I wrote this for Mypage5, a site where I am quite active these days. I talk about my preference for being (and remaining ) a vegetarian and why I feel that people should remain so, and in fact, if possible adopt it. Till a long time, even upto early 20th century, our forefathers did not had many of the conveniences that science and technology has provided us. To be more specific, I would talk about Cold Storage, Bulk Transportation,extensive Roads and Rails and numerous Flights for cargo movement. These as well as refrigerator and Air conditioning has made it possible to store foods as well as fruits as well as vegetables all year around,and not just for a particular season. Our forefathers and ancestors lacked these facilities. Hence, they had to contend with whatever grew / or was available in their natural habitat, and as per different seasons. So, an Eskimo living near North Pole had to hunt for animals and so did a person living in higher Himalayas, say in Ladakh, Tibet or upper Alps. So, many people had no choice but to eat non-vegetarian food and had very little scope for vegetarian food. However, now even people living in such places have the option of having vegetarian food all the year. Yes, the freshness might be lesser, still they at least have the option. This makes the case for more and more people to go vegetarian, which has scientifically been proved to be more beneficial for health than non-vegetarian food. However, whether you or others actually adopt it depends a lot upon your own personal beliefs.
