The Meatrix

Besh wants us all to watch The Meatrix, a hilarious new animated short from Free Range Graphics: www.themeatrix.com As its name implies, the Meatrix spoofs the popular Matrix movies. But instead of Keanu Reaves, the Meatrix stars a young pig, Leo, who lives on a pleasant family farm ... he thinks. Leo is approached by a wise and mysterious cow, Moopheus, who shows Leo the truth about modern farming -- the truth about the Meatrix! It may be humorous, but the film also brings up an important issue: factory farming. Huge, industrial farms have all but wiped out the family farm in America. Along the way, they are damaging our health, our environment and our communities (not to mention the lives of billions of animals). But the Meatrix isn¹t all gloom and doom. In fact, it ends with an upbeat, meaningful way that YOU can help fight the factory farming crisis -- the ³Eat Well Guide², an online healthy-living resource that allows you to enter your zip code and find nearby family farms that produce organic, safe produce and meat: www.eatwellguide.org Supporting family farmers is an effective way for us all to protect the environment, our health and animal rights. The Eat Well Guide makes it easy.
