Thank you for your incredible honesty in your journey and observations. You made a compassionate and strong decision to stop participating in violence, which all of us need to consider. I do clearly notice, as the camera shows your audience, the many numbers of people who are crossing their arms in a defensive mode. Most also have a very serious look on their faces, surely not wanting to listen to your words. Your words force other people to think about their choices and what they are participating in, just by having a meal. Your message is clear, but many humans have a difficult time reckoning with their habitual addiction to animal products, with their not wanting to be cruel. I took the plunge over twenty years ago and became an ethical vegan. I care about the animals, the environment, and yes, humanity. Being a whole food ethical vegan is an amazing experience that changes your life--body, mind, and spirit-- for the better.
An inspirational and honest speech! You have all my respect. Thank you for being the voice of all the suffering animals. Vegan is the future, and vegan for life.🙂🙏
Yes! Thank you! Now: I can relate to the habit of calling the earth a "planet" - but, now that I know it is not that, but a flat motionless plane, I just "snip off the t"! "PLANE!"
I am vegetarian since 2012. No dairy milk anymore. I 😘 ve coconut milk and almond milk. Getting rid off the eggs and trying to get rid off the cheese. No animals (meat)at all.
@@thankyouforbeingafriend9632 I have never heard of anyone who lives a vegan lifestyle who switched because they didn't like the taste of meat. Or dairy. Or eggs.
@Matthew Kuhn Even though I've been vegan for 7 years with perfect blood tests, let's pretend for a moment that we actually did need to take suppliments to thrive on a plant based diet. How would that be even a drop in the bucket compared to the suffering the animals endure day in and day out?
We dont force people to go vegan. we explain that they are alternative to animals produce to make less harm to animals and that we can thrive and be healthy on a plant based diet without exploiting animals that feels emotions and pain.
If that's the case, we meat-eaters need to start putting our animals on LAYAWAY . I think Walmart still does SITE-TO-STORE . Let's see, that'll be how many cows, pigs and chickens for a family of 12 per year ? We may have to do some genetic CLONING . That'll work !
For someone who is NOT vegan/vegetarian, that is TOO MUCH meat! A healthy diet (for "meat eaters") is 20%-10% meat or less. Ask any doctor if you do not believe me. Look at the food pyramid. Everything above that is ABNORMAL
I just can't see myself ever becoming vegan. For now I am buying naturally-raised farm food. Eventually I will switch over to bug protein meat or lab grown meat.
+Thomson Eating meat does not automatically mean I will have a short life; especially if I am careful to choose where the meat is made form (mainly staying away from factory farms). Also, why would I die from bug protein meat?
@@thomsonhomson There are more ex vegans than vegans. But don't worry, the future will go on without you and your stupidity. The future won't be vegan when more than 80% that try it, end up quitting.
Factory farms are agreeably horrific. However, just because animals are "raised naturally" does not mean they are happy on their way to or in the slaughterhouse!. Naturally raised animals want to live their lives and have babies but not be forced to do so for human consumption. Babies are taken away from farm animals whether factory farmed or natural, and they all are killed at a fraction, 5%-10% if that, of their natural life. The animal ag industry hides the violence the animals go through. Then consumers only have a relationship with their dead body, milk, or eggs. Please, work in a slaughterhouse for a days shift, visit a farm animal sanctuary, or watch the documentary "Earthlings". You will see what really exists, versus the misleading labels you think are okay. cheers.
@Lawrence Jörgensen what's it to you? You do you, let others make their own choice. Proscription of other people's lives is fascism. The key this presenter ignores is ethical husbandry and high welfare meat, she ignores all of that. Intensive animal farming really does need outlawing, but do farm animals all have to cease to exist to pander to this nonsense?
So beautiful. Thank you so much! Ive been vegan for four months. Loving it.
Vegan choice is the only way we can replace repair the damages done to the environment! Congratulations.
We hope more people follow your lead.
The way you speak spoke to my heart. It Is very important. Thanks for doing it with a kind speech. 💗
Vegan since December ‘13 and I’ll never switch back!

Compassion is the best side effect of being vegan

Screaming REEEEEE every time you see a delicious bit of bacon isn't as amazing as you think it is.

No I like eating meat

I LOVE MEAT 🍖
What could make our persnickety desires more important than an animal's entire life?
@Matthew Kuhn If it turned out that our hunger can be satiated without harming animals, would you still want the animals to be harmed anyway?
@Matthew Kuhn Even though I've been vegan for 7 years with perfect blood tests, let's pretend for a moment that we actually did need to take suppliments to thrive on a plant based diet. How would that be even a drop in the bucket compared to the suffering the animals endure day in and day out?
@Matthew Kuhn I'd be more than happy to answer your questions after you answer mine.
@Matthew Kuhn
Actually, you were right to begin with. Humans are omnivores.
Let's ask Ms. Peterson her opinion. Oh yeah, she was banned from tedx.

It's annoying how vegans try to make people more vegan. You simply cannot control people. I also had to watch this for class
We dont force people to go vegan. we explain that they are alternative to animals produce to make less harm to animals and that we can thrive and be healthy on a plant based diet without exploiting animals that feels emotions and pain.
no. the people in the crowd don't care
This is total bull! This woman is crazy or a liar.😁
I agree
so dead
If that's the case, we meat-eaters need to start putting our animals on LAYAWAY . I think Walmart still does SITE-TO-STORE . Let's see, that'll be how many cows, pigs and chickens for a family of 12 per year ? We may have to do some genetic CLONING . That'll work !
Future Will not be vegan.
No madam, there is plenty of wildlife out there that wants to be eaten.
Do you want to be eaten? If not treat others the way u want to be treated.
I’m eating a 20 oz T bone steak while watching this.
I would never, under any circumstances, go vegan.
Sorry... but I'm an omnivore, not a herbivore.
You do you, and then mind your own business.
Did the animals have a choice. Your selfish. What goes around comes around
Idk why but i think im 50% vegan and 50% meat
For someone who is NOT vegan/vegetarian, that is TOO MUCH meat!

I eat meat. But I think the future (if we have one) will probably be vegan/vegetarian or people will be eating lab made meat 😀
For me it feels right to eat animal products.
