Animal Testing Should Be Banned [Greetings] I am here to opine my views against the topic animal testing should be banned. First of all, Animal testing has contributed to many life-saving cures and treatments. Experiments in which dogs had their pancreases removed led directly to the discovery of insulin, critical to saving the lives of diabetics. It is widely believed that we wouldn't have a vaccine for hepatitis B without chimpanzees Secondly, There is no adequate alternative to testing on a living, whole-body system. Computer models can only be reliable if accurate information gleaned from animal research is used to build the models in the first place. Furthermore, even the most powerful supercomputers are unable to accurately simulate the workings of complex organs such as the brain. Thirdly, Animals themselves benefit from the results of animal testing. If vaccines were not tested on animals, millions of animals would have died from rabies, distemper, feline leukemia, infectious hepatitis virus, tetanus, anthrax, and canine parvovirus. Fourthly, Animal research is highly regulated, with laws in place to protect animals from mistreatment. All proposals to use animals for research must be approved by an Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) set up by each research facility. Humane treatment is enforced by each facility's IACUC.
Its the ability of an animal to be tested. An energy crisis is any great bottleneck (or price rise) in the supply of energy resources to an economy. In popular literature though, it often refers to one of the energy sources used at a certain time and place, particularly those that supply national electricity grids or serve as fuel for vehicles. There has been an enormous increase in the global demand for energy in recent years as a result of industrial development and population growth. Since the early 2000s the demand for energy, especially from liquid fuels, and limits on the rate of fuel production has created such a bottleneck leading to the 2000s energy crisis.

Animal Testing Should Be Banned[Greetings] I am here to opine my
views against the topic animal testing should be banned. First o
all! Animal testing has contributed to many lie"saving cures and
treatments. #$periments in which dogs had their pancreases removed
led directly to the discovery o insulin! critical to saving the
lives o diabetics. It is widely believedthat we wouldn%t have a
vaccine or hepatitis B without chimpan&eesSecondly! There is no
ade'uate alternative to testing on a living! whole"body system.
(omputer models can only be reliable i accurate inormation gleaned
rom animal research is used to build the models in the irst place.
Furthermore! even the most powerul supercomputers are unable to
accurately simulate the wor)ings o comple$ organs such as the
brain. Thirdly! Animals themselves beneit rom the results o animal
testing. I vaccines were not tested on animals! millions o animals
would have died rom rabies! distemper! eline leu)emia! inectious
hepatitis virus! tetanus! anthra$! and canine parvovirus.Fourthly!
Animal research is highly regulated! with laws in place to protect
animals rom mistreatment. All proposals to use animals or research
must be approved by an Institutional Animal (are and *se (ommittee
+IA(*(, set up by each research acility. -umane treatment is
enorced by each acility%s IA(*(.Fithly! some cosmetics and health
care products must be tested on animals to ensure their saety.
American women use an average o ./ personal care products per day!
so product saety is o great importance.The *S Food and 0rug
Administration endorses the use o animal tests on cosmetics to
1assure the saety o a product or ingredient.1To conclude I would
li)e to say that animal testing is the only way we develop
lie"saving medicines and ensure the saety o cosmetics. In the end I
would li)e to as) you all 2 will you use a medicine or a cosmetic
product that has never been tested on a living being3 2
