Humanity is facing moral crisis. More than 80 Billion (80,000,000,000) land animals are slaughtered as part of the meat and dairy industry per year. This number would be in trillions (1 trillion = 1,000,000,000,000) when we include marine animals [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6].
While we are blissfully engorging ourselves, sentient and innocent individuals are bred into existence at an alarming scale to be treated as mere products, and to be slaughtered at a fraction of their lifespan by the industries that makes up the entire systems of our lives [7]. Unfortunately, we are directly and (sub)consciously contributing to this vile and unsustainable system which is based on cruelty and exploitation of sentient lives, mostly driven by anthropocentric worldview.
In current modern society, we have no valid justification for causing such an injustice towards other beings..In light of this, it is not simply our duty, but our profound moral imperative to actively contribute to a better world than the one we inherited.
We live in a time where we have abundant plant-based, eco friendlier, and kinder alternatives. While our every day choices have the power to put an end to the mass slaughter of these innocent individuals, most of us continue contributing to this system out of habit, health, culture, tradition, or ego.
The solution begins with going vegan, and that's just the beginning of it, not the end!
Non-human animals are here with us, not for us. The planet is theirs too.
Since going vegan in 2021, I've realized that there is a lot to (un/re)learn. I aim to provide a comprehensive resource that I wish had existed when I was a new vegan navigating this lifestyle.
