004- Vegan for the Humans

Description:

"Why do you care about animals when there are millions of suffering humans in the world?” Many vegans have received this criticism, which we happen to find illogical and contradictory. In this episode, we explain just why veganism is part of the social justice movement and how leaving animals off our plates actually promotes peace.

We are not only vegan for the animals, but also for the humans.

Here are some of our sources and references from our research.
