Over 56 billion farmed animals are killed every year by humans. These shocking figures do not even include fish and other sea creatures whose deaths are so great that they are only measured in tonnes.

​

Animals are not simply food products but thinking, feeling individuals who want to enjoy their lives. An animal's life is as important and irreplaceable to them as ours is to us. But as children, we are conditioned to view cows, pigs, chickens, sheep, and fish as inferior beings whose reason for existence is to provide us with meat, milk, and eggs. This way of seeing other species is known as speciesism. It's time to change how we see the other animals with which we share the planet. We must stop thinking of them as just resources and start viewing them for who they are: individual sentient beings whose lives deserve to be respected and valued.

​

The solution: Veganism

​

There is a very simple way we can prevent the greatest amount of animal suffering: By adopting a vegan diet, we can personally save up to 95 animals a year and thousands during our lifetimes. Most of us already believe that animals should not be harmed unnecessarily, yet eating animal products harms and kills animals and is unnecessary for human health. Choosing a healthy, varied vegan diet means respecting the lives of animals and refusing to take part in their exploitation.
