Why go vegan?
For Animals
The meat industry’s rampant abuse of animals is the number one reason to go vegan. Whether it’s chickens, pigs, cows, fish, or any other animal, no one wants to die to end up on your plate. By going vegan, you won’t contribute to the suffering that’s inherent when animals are bred and killed to be eaten. You’ll also no longer support the mass culling of male chicks in the egg industry or the removal of baby cows from their mothers for dairy milk, cheese, yogurt, and ice cream.
For Your Health
There’s no nutritional need for humans to eat anything derived from an animal—in fact, all of our dietary needs are best supplied by a meat-free diet. Eating vegan can reduce the risk of suffering from many chronic degenerative diseases and other conditions, including heart disease, cancer, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes.

For the Environment
Raising animals for food requires massive amounts of land, food, energy, and water. By some estimates, animal agriculture is responsible for more greenhouse gases than all of the world’s transportation systems combined. The absolute best way to combat the worst effects of climate change is to go vegan.
