    Can you talk about EU certifications too in the Next ones? Loved this video and would like to see labels that are in my country too

      Yes, and some specific labels like Bioland, Naturland, Bio Austria.

      That’s just really hard to do without ending up with some very superficial conclusions 😬, a summary is hard to do, because there are different aspects of all these certificates and I think it is important to mention them all

      I wasn't a fan tbh. Just like Cowspiracy, it's basically propaganda with loads of accusation and manipulation. I understand that American documentaries often are that way but imho it just gives veganism more of a bad name and there's much better stuff out there that deals with messed up system failures.

    The vegan label is an issue to me because it means the product does not have animal products IN it. However they can test on animals...which is not vegan so... I wish the "vegan" label was replaced by "plant based product" and there was a new "vegan" label that means it BOTH doesn't include animal products AND doesn't test on animals because that would be actually vegan
