Eating meat is one of the leading causes of climate change, pollution, water wastage, deforestation, and species extinction. If we want to make a difference for the planet, meat has got to go.

From kale and quinoa to seitan and sweet potatoes, vegan fare is fabulous! Expand your palate and discover a whole new world of flavor.

This can’t be overstated. Knowing that you are living a life that reduces violence and suffering in the world feels amazing.

Almost every city  has incredible all-vegan restaurants or restaurants that can create fantastic vegan dishes.

6. You can be happy and healthy without meat.

Healthier, even. Skipping meat is a great way to reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer. You could also live longer!
