When I went vegetarian at age eleven, it was a remarkably easy transition. A boy at my school was attempting to kill creatures in the pond. When I tried to stop him, he said, "You eat animals," like that meant I had no right to try and save something that could end up on my plate later. The hypocrisy of my actions became crystal clear in that moment. I decided, no more meat. When I first started working for two organizations supporting anti-factory farming I realized veganism is the only diet that can change the world. You can expect a healthier body, and the feeling of pride that goes hand-in-hand with living according to your values. That's something that many people aspire to, but few people achieve. (it) |
