Compassion to animals, a bridge to humanity | Mojy Sadri | TEDxBorrowdale

She starts off with a childhood story that taught her to respect animals to draw the audience into their own feelings about how animals are delicate creatures that need to be cared for just like human beings. She will continue with how she became conditioned to ignore the subject of animal testing because it sounded too painful. It was only when her daughter showed her a video of a dog undergoing an experiment was she able to see the horrors of animal testing. Then, she would add how she began doing research to find out how someone, like herself, could really make a difference. At first, it seemed overwhelming and complicated, as she became more educated, she realized she could make a difference by consciously selecting her products. She wants to show the audience that they don’t have to be overwhelmed. That they can also make a difference in their own journeys by also choosing to buy cruelty free products. Only this conscious existence will force manufacturers to change their ways . Mojy Sadri is an engineer, mother, author, teacher, and advocate of animal rights. When she learned about the harsh way animals were treated in the food, agriculture, cosmetic and drug industry, she decided to do something about it. After researching, reading articles, watching interviews, and connecting with the scientists who are against animal testing, she realized that ending suffering for animals is a choice that every single person can make by paying attention to what they buy. Her passion for animal welfare also inspired her to write her first children’s story, To Be Free, where she educates children about the importance of animal’s natural habitats. Currently, she is working on her second book to better connect the dots for children as to why we should respect animals. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
