A Case for Veganism
50 Reasons Why it is Unethical, Unhealthy, and Unsustainable to Consume Animal Products
About
A Case for Veganism
Part one: Animal Ethics
Veganism is the only ethical diet, as it excludes unnecessary suffering. All animal products entail avoidable harm, which renders their consumption unethical.
Part two: Human Health
Veganism is the healthiest diet, as it is largely free from harmful nutrients that are often found in animal products. Nutrient deficiencies can easily be prevented through a whole food, plant-based diet.
Part three: Planet and People
Veganism improves the health of our planet and its collective inhabitants. Animal agriculture is partially responsible for climate change, ecological disasters, and many contemporary public health issues.
Conclusion
Veganism is the only rational consumption pattern. More than 50 reasons demonstrate why consuming animal products is unethical, unhealthy, and unsustainable.
