**********
If animals matter morally at all–if animals are not mere things that exist as resources for human use–than veganism is the only rationally response.
If you are not vegan, please go vegan. Going vegan is easy, better for your health (as a matter of plain fact) and the heath of the planet, and most important, it is what we owe morally to nonhuman animals.
The World is Vegan! If you want it.
