According to Troy Seidle a pole concluded that, “88 percent of us believe animal testing causes pain and suffering to animals and that such suffering just for cosmetics isn’t worth it, especially when safe ingredients are already available,”(Seidle). Considering that most people don’t feel the need to buy products with newly tested ingredients, why should companies continue to do that it is not an absolutely necessary practice. There are thousands of chemicals out there that have already gone through the process of being tested so it wouldn’t be like companies couldn’t make new products, they could make many. Yes companies want to make money by selling newly improved products but that is not going to make people want to buy products that aren’t apart of their daily use. Gregory Mone states that animal testing is a long and expensive process and can take several years and use up millions of dollars to carry out, (Mone). The United States of America is already in enough national debt so they should stop animal testing in order to prevent even more debt caused which could go down if those million dollar test come to an end. People may say what else could they do, that is where computers come in there are many ways to analyze the way a chemical could react to the human body, it might be a big purchase at first but it will last for several years. Overall in the long run …show more content…
Aditi Verma says that these “sophisticated computer and mathematical models” are nothing but alternative methods, (Verma). A fairly recent invention of the 3-D printer which can print out skin models which are able mimic how skin could possibly react to a certain product. As well as having skin models pharmaceuticals companies run the molecular structure of a chemical through a computer database and the computer produces results on what could possibly happen when that drug is used. Also science is improving more and more everyday which can make more alternatives to animal testing. Arna Cohen says that companies can create new cosmetics by choosing among thousands of ingredients that have been tested in the past and proven to be safe, (Cohen). Since there are already thousands of already tested safe ingredients companies might as well stick to what they know and not risk causing harm to even more animals than some may have already caused. In addition to no longer causing harm to animals it will also save companies great amounts money to use already tested products because they would no longer have to run million dollar test in order to see if a new chemical will work. Then companies just have worry about the overall product instead of the individual chemicals and ingredients. It is a clear choice to no longer test products on animals because of the
