Here is some of a conversation I shared with a beef farmer at the Animal Rights Activism Sydney cube of truth.

Obviously, when outreaching at these events the goal is to create a new vegan. However, when it came to this conversation with a farmer himself, I was pretty pleased with the fact that he reasoned with me, agreed with most of my points, had a rational and respectful conversation with me and even agreed to go vegetarian by the end of it.

From boosting our health to helping the environment, there are so many reasons to choose a vegan diet! Dr. Neal Barnard shares his top 21 reasons to go vegan in 2021.

"Honestly finishing these workouts while changing my diet is very concerning." Quinton loves to work out and has always thought that he needed to eat a lot of animal-based protein to see results. After seeing the documentary "The Game Changers," he decided to see what happens if he switches to eating exclusively plant-based foods and proteins.

Interest in vegan food and its associated health benefits has been booming across the rich world. A global retreat from meat could have a far-reaching environmental impact.

By 2050 the world's population could approach 10 billion - and around 60% more food could be needed to feed everyone. The environmental impacts of the food system are daunting its responsible for about a quarter of all greenhouse gas emissions and uses about 70% of all freshwater resources, and it occupies about 40% of the Earth's land surface.

Food rated emissions could increase to 50 percent by 2050 and fill up the total emissions budget that we have in order to avoid dangerous levels of climate change.

Interest in vegan food has been booming across the rich world. A major study has put the diet to the test - analyzing an imagined scenario in which the world goes vegan by 2050. If everybody went vegan by 2050 we estimated that food-related greenhouse gas emissions could be reduced by 3/4.

Cows are the biggest emission contributors. Bugs in their digestive system produce methane and deforestation for their pasture releases carbon dioxide - these gases warm the planet. If cows were a country, they'd be the third largest greenhouse gas emitter.

For all the "I could never go vegan"-ers and the "I don't know how you do it"-s, here are the things I wish I knew before going vegan. It seems like every day it's getting easier and easier to go plant-based and with my tips it's almost a new brainer. Share with your friends or anyone that's struggling with the switch!! What are your tips for going vegan??
