There is no set answer to this question, as every vegetarian has their own reasons. Many people are vegetarian for ethical reasons, and some have witnessed animal cruelty in factory farms. Others become vegetarians because they dislike the taste or appearance of meat.
Furthermore, some people become vegetarian for religious reasons. Some people also become vegetarians for the health benefits and believe that a vegetarian diet will allow them to be slimmer. Vegetarians have a reduced risk of Heart disease and cancer.
There are also environmental reasons to become a vegetarian. Meat production is very wasteful, using huge amounts of water and producing sometimes unmanageable amounts of pollution. Methane produced by livestock is 20 times stronger than carbon dioxide in causing the "greenhouse effect". Meat production is one of the main causes of global warming (making Al Gore a hypocrite because he still eats meat).
While people are still starving in this world, it is wasteful that in the U.S. half of all the food grown goes to livestock. Cows should eat grass, and the famished kids in Africa should eat grain.
