Abstract

This collaborative group project serves as the culmination of our group's research on the advantages and disadvantages of living a vegetarian lifestyle. First, all group members present their individual thoughts on and expectations for the project, giving the reader a transparent view of the researchers' intentions and backgrounds. The video documentary combines our two interviews from the Oral History assignment with quotes from various readings. It serves to explain the ups and downs of vegetarianism as well as encourage all people, vegetarians and meat-eaters alike, to pursue healthier, more aware food consumption. The afterward reflects on the process involved in the creation of this documentary for each individual group member; the afterward also offers suggestions for further research on the topic.
