  • Couldn’t that logic be used against literally any good action? Like giving $100,000 to a malaria charity isn’t going to stop malaria. If everyone thought like vegans, the world would be vegan, the climate crisis would almost entirely be averted, rivers swimmable, billions of animal lives saved each year.

    If during your supermarket shop, you use vegan recipes instead, you’ll be one of those dominos. You could be the systemic change!

















  • I work in a hospital, and have campaigned to get vegan food included on the menus with some progress. Every year they run a staff feedback online form, and I try to press them on their “clean green image” that they keep running with. I keep asking for the menus to have plant-based food as a tickable option, rather than as a request. Hasn’t happened yet.

    At least they now have pre-made vegan sandwiches and wraps available. Problem is the patients here are all rich boomers who turn their noses up at the mere mention of vegetables. So a lot of the vegan sandwiches/wraps end up in the skip.

    I’ve asked them to keep the out-of-date ones aside for me, but hospitals don’t like that kind of thing unfortunately.

    Point is, I’m seeing quiet mild progress in the vegan food at hospitals department.
