I do not use or consume, as far as is possible and practicable, any products of animal exploitation, for clothing, cosmetics, entertainment or any other purpose.

Vegan principles

I adhere to the principle that our fellow animals have the right to be treated with respect and justice and should not be commodified or treated as property.
