In the era of combatting rapid climate change, meat & dairy are getting the worst press: in particular, we've been seeing beef getting slashed everywhere for its methane emissions - cow burps and farts. So we are increasingly being told that switching to a vegan/plant-based diet is the solution to climate change. But is it really the case? Because popular vegan foods like avocados, soy and almonds do cause massive environmental destruction. So how could eating regional plant-based foods be potentially less environmentally damaging than eating local and organic meat & dairy? In this video, I will be explaining and debunking various claims made around veganism and plant based diets using life-cycle assessment.

I am a vegan/animal rights and environmental/climate activist, and I share various educational content on veganism and plant-based living - the ethics, environment, climate change, and nonhuman & human rights issues, as well as easy vegan/plant-based recipes.

Today I'm sharing my winter to spring eco and vegan capsule wardrobe essentials!

Want in on a little secret?

Most post days I spend so much time in front of a screen, laboring away, that I almost always end up baking something when I finish. In order to celebrate with something delicious? Sure. But also to have something manual to do that doesn’t involve screens. And baking is such a gratifying task, isn’t it? Unlike many other tasks you may do around the house, there’s a final product that involves eating. My favorite. (And thanks to this frequent post-baking pairing of mine, I have a couple yummy recipes that I will be sharing with you soon soon soon. Well, as soon as I figure out how to film a recipe video in our kitchen that isn’t just an overhead shot…)

The good news is, though, that I’ve figured out how to shoot capsule wardrobe content. (That is… I got a clothing rack – essential.) So today I’m delighted to share with you some of my favorite eco and vegan pieces from both my winter and spring capsules! Hooray!

I know it’s tricky to outfit yourself all in eco… what with most sustainable brands being online, and therefore, out of “trying on” reach. I am so aware of the challenges, and, trust me, I feel your pain. It’s also true that sometimes buying from eco or sustainable brands can be a bit more expensive. But… be that as it may, these days we can’t just turn a blind eye to the sinister fast fashion world. (Definitely watch The True Cost if you haven’t yet.)

Well, you can, but you may not sleep well at night. And chances are, if you’re visiting Veggie Magnifique, you’re seeking to live better and sleep well at night. The key here? As always – Progress not perfection – i.e. one piece at time {...}

Exploring Vegan Mosaic District & the TRUTH about NOMAD SUITCASE LIFE
In this video we explore the Mosaic District in Fairfax in North Virginia, outside of Washington DC and share the truth about living out of suitcases for 2 months.

We also sample some of the best vegan food in the Mosaic District as we continue to expand our exploration of vegan food in the greater Washington DC area.

We also share the realities of being over 40 nomads living out of suitcases as we continue our unconventional living chapter as two South Africans currently living in the USA.

Christian asks what is veganism and is it the right way to live and eat.

Christian Hextrum is a little over average height so some people call me Big C. He lives in Santa Rosa with his mom, dad, and three sisters. He is a sophomore at Cardinal Newman and is 15 years old. His is currently the captain and leading scorer of the Newman JV basketball team. He attended St. Eugene's from kindergarten through eighth grade and will be at Newman until he graduates. Soon, he would like to begin serving in the St. Eugene's CYO basketball program to coach and mentor players. Christian would like to be an architect after college.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

I created this Ethical Vegan Fashion Lookbook to show that you can look great and stay "on-trend" while being an ethical consumer.

I decided to try out a new camera on my last outing and thought this would be a simple but fun experiment, I had to cut some shots and the camera is going back as I prefer my old one so this is just a little extra vid from the experiment. In case anyone was wondering my old camera is a Canon Eos M3 and I tried out the Sony ZV-1 here which was just unsuitable for what I do and how I do it.
