I've just watched this film, 'Watch vegucated', and I have to say it's changed the way I think about eating a plant-based diet.
I've been a vegan for coming up to 9 years now, and I've always been pretty reticent about talking about that. I've mainly waited until someone asked me about my diet, and then I've explained why I'm a vegan:
I don't want another animal to die so that I may live;
I can't eat anything that I feel sorry for;
It's better for my health;
It's better for the planet.
That's basically it. But haven't, until now, advised other people what they should eat. OK, I've gone onto the odd food forum and posted about the benefits of a plant-based diet, but I mostly keep my opinions to myself.
But watching this film has convinced me of the benefits to society of eating more plants - which means eating less meat and dairy.
Hence me posting this - I feel the need to inform.
Information is power - and I've decided to move more into spreading the word.
Watch this space!
