Stay animal-friendly and sustainable,
PS.: I can only vaguely guess how you feel after these lectures about veganism. But in case you now feel the need to also Convince meat eatersYou can find the tips in the linked article.
I'm interested in whether vegan food can be climate neutral at all? I read about peanut butter, avocado, soy, coconut milk and other things that are carted in from distant countries!!!! That has nothing to do with climate protection !!! How do you justify that? You may not be eating animals, but you are destroying the environment to an even greater extent!!!!
Hi Frauke! You have now listed a few foods that are mostly not grown in Europe. (Soy for human consumption, however, is)
But the plant-based diet naturally includes thousands of other foods that are grown sustainably and in Germany or Europe. So you don't have to eat the products you mentioned to eat a vegan diet.
It is much more important to know that the "detour animal" for animal foods such as meat, eggs or milk is associated with the greatest environmental destruction and the acceleration of climate change. Animals need to be fed (80 percent of the global soy harvest is animal feed) and require a lot of land. The rainforests in South America in particular are cut down for this purpose.
There are dozens of articles here on the blog that will inform you about this. Feel free to look around.
