    "Why are you vegan?!" - That Question...

    We've all been there... when someone finds out you're vegan and instantly starts questioning you. Well, this is a good thing because it means the person is interested and will be receptive to what you say (I know often they're asking in a sarcastic way, but here's your chance to share some...

    Media Need motivation to go vegan?

    Right, so there are lots of reasons to go vegan aren't there? Well, it would seem like the world is almost conspiring against vegans... and it is in a way. The meat and dairy companies and businesses (of multi-billion worth...) obviously do not want the facts to be out there - such as those...

    Question about ethics

    Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question, but I've been unable to find an actual perspective on this issue.

Just because we've done something for...

    "Ethical veganism" legally recognized in Ontario

    More: Ethical Veganism Now Legally Recognized in Ontario, Canada (19. January 2016) I agree with the first comment, that there is no need to put "ethical" in front of veganism. Veganism is inherently based on ethics.
