Actually, this one is terrible.

I've found out that I get more anxious speaking at home, even if I'm alone, so I pause a lot to organize my thoughts and take breaths (also happened with my previous speech).

This took 5+ tries because I kept tripping over my words for no reason while reading the prompt, and I'm 20 seconds over time.

Miiiight need to do something about the anxiety thing. I'll try to practice these speeches with someone instead and see if that helps.

There should be a distinction between different kinds of tertiary education: universities, colleges and vocational schools etc.

Universities SHOULD be reserved for those with good academic performance: It's a very intensive academic environment that requires you to apply the knowledge you learned, which is an even higher requirement than in high school; if you can't even do that in high school, more often than not you'll struggle and waste your tuition

For those with not as good performance: vocational schools are available that prepare them directly and practically for a line of job, easier on the brain, less requirements, very straightforward, still lots of jobs for them to choose from

p1: environmental

if world switches to veggies we use less space for livestock

veggies cultivation has less carbon emissions than livestock raising due to less equipment such as automated feeding machines, surveillance cameras and such

veggies can’t be grown everywhere however so some countries might have to import entire species of vegetable -> higher carbon footprint for transportation than meat/livestock, which are more commonly distributed domestically

=> depending on the context of the country: is it suitable for agriculture?

p2: ethical

screw this

“but ohhhhh nooooooo you’re raising animals to kill them and eat them that’s evil that’s torture” SKILL ISSUE YOU WEAK- (The following rant has been censored for the sanity of everyone involved)

aren’t plants living beings too y’all contradicting yourselves over here

eat whatever you want nobody cares

oh btw these vegetarian stuff are obscenely expensive check your priveleges

=> vegetarianism is cool it helps with the environment and you can brag about your moral superiority but people can eat whatever the hell they want

khánh nguyên & bảo ngọc

Intro:

Imagine, for most of your life, you live on a farm. You listen to Beethoven every day, and are fed high-quality grass. Then, one day, all of a sudden, you are slaughtered and eaten. This is what followers of vegetarianism often claim. Though there exists environmental..., the ambiguous debate of ethics & circumstantial factors like budget make vegetarian demands an implausible feat.

Admittedly, environmental impacts exist

Carbon footprint, greenhouse gases (cows methane)

Ethical concerns

Vegetarianism still allows dairy, eggs,...

So the problem of "valuing animal lives" doesn't really hold

Because these animals are still mistreated/mass-produced

Expensive (can't expect everyone to afford due to circumstances)

You can't expect everyone to afford a plant-based diet

Example: fishing village, usually eats fish, all they have

Poor families have to make do

Too high expectations, some plants expensive

Conclusion: Although environmental impacts,...to demand everyone to afford plants & follow a rigid set of ethics,.... virtually impossible

hook 1: could you look a cow in the eye and tell it you are going to slaughter it and eat it?

hook 2: did you know that more than 10% of annual greenhouse gas emissions are from the meat industry?

thesis: to not feel guilt every time you look at cow, and to not contribute further to global warming, we should turn to vegetarianism.
