I never heard anything about it, and one day vegan extremist protests popped on my phone. I was interested and watched, at first I thought this was some crazy extremist group. One video lead into another, I learned so much! I had no idea there was animal creulty, not like what I saw, I didnt know what a factory farm was, I was suprsed by what I saw
I didn't know it was destroying the planet, I didnt know it was destroying human health. I will say, non violent protests draw attention, they have meaning, they have a place.
 
One day, a year + 6 months ago, I started reading about and comparing diets when in comes to environmental impact, animal wellbeing and health. When I read (and saw) how bad a non-vegan lifestyle was for al of the three I cried. Three hours later i was a vegan. Still am, and no plans to stop.
