Pledge Wall

Lufi

I don't much care to be vegan, I wish being vegan came to be the "norm" rather than a sub culture. There's something amiss in the Human Animal World, when us who want to live a life without purposely inflicting terror should be the "Odd", the radicals.

As doctors, we are taught the principle of "First, do no harm". In January 2024 I realised I could no longer ignore the daily moral injury of continuing to support an industry that causes great harm to living, feeling creatures. Life has never been better.

Pledge #370
Justine

Being vegan is a kinder, healthier way to live. 'Somebody thought of it - and someone believed it' (and then a whole lot of people agreed). That's how every belief system happens and that is how treating animals as commodities happened. Time to change.
