Who told to the peoples of earth that plants don’t feel pain and they don’t have souls and blood green purple or yellow and brown. Plants are animals if you eating plants you still killing living organisms species with souls (animal is every living organism with anime, even the stones and sand PANPSYCHISM) and they have souls and also are much better stronger and evolved forms of life than humans and other animals, example they live for thousands of years and they remember everything they see they feel pain they talk and they do even things we cannot. Indeed plants are better food for us but don’t say that you don’t kill something. Climate change it is a myth as overpopulation is a myth – For example Canada and Australia are huge countries with population 30 million and lager than Europe with 700 million people. So where is the over population. Also America it is empty with 320 million and larger than Europe with 700+ million. All the climate change and overpopulation is a myth – The Climate of earth always change since forever, the pollution with forever chemicals plastic radiation corporatocracy bankers global companies politicians and liars and others similar are the problems not the earth and the peoples on it and the types of food you eat.

If you could ask a wolf whether they would stop hunting for live prey out of compassion to their personal lives and families, or even more, if they refused from eating the flesh of a human unlucky enough to have ended up in their fangs just because “we are of the same blood you and I”, I’m sure they, gently speaking, would not accept such reasoning and go on. It’s the way of life. Nonetheless, I’m intrigued with what meals were described and how tasty they might be. If indeed vegan food can be more delicious that meat then it’s the only way to support your agenda – make people vote with their money though a better taste. Thank you!

The last 6 years of my life have been the healthiest ever since going carnivore at 17. Lost 70 pounds in 5 months, then packed on way more muscle since.
Yet you never see mainstream sources push keto, low carb, or carnivore eating lifestyles. It’s all meatless and plant based, while completely cherry picking the people they use to push plant based diets and ignoring the majority of people who don’t thrive on them

Those mushrooms would go good on a ribeye. Too bad u cant eat the most nutritional food which is a ribeye while being a vegetarian. What about peoples suffering? My friend and many people try to be vegetarian and it almost killed them. Just saying. TED, i swear u only put on vids that are designed to brainwash people?

Veganism is a literal impossibility and also serves no logical, moral, or ethical purpose. All crops have an animal death footprint larger than just killing an animal and eating it of the same calories. 90% of global crop production is reductive and catastrophically harmful to wildlife. And this only considers macro animals. There are trillions of microscopic creatures being violently ground to a pulp and dissolved in acid every single millisecond of every single day…
The only moral and ethical path is omni-consumption. We must shift from isolating and growing mono-culture crops to a permaculture model. And our consumption needs to reflect the excess production of these permaculture models. Plants, animals, insects, fungus, bacteria, it must all be consumed to preserve the life that preserves us.
The vegan delusion is a corporate ad campaign. Life cannot be compartmentalized and sold as branded commodity. We must return to a system that depends on our consumption for balance. Not one that we must artificially sustain to support manipulated feelings, and profit. Sustainability requires that we grow all forms of consumable life to great enough abundance that we can sustain ourselves off the excess.
That is the only way forward. Every other path including global vegetarianism will continue to degrade and destroy the ecosystems we depend on for survival. We need herd animals to process and spread waste, we need insects to pollinate plants, we need fungus and bacteria in the soil breaking all the waste down and feeding plants. We need everything all at once and in “problematic” abundance. So that we, our need to consume as humans, is the solution to that problem.
It’s so very simple. But all of you have to stop fighting impossible culture wars and start focusing in on the class war that is using campaigns like Veganism as weaponized propaganda. If you don’t want to eat animals, more power to you, but unless we replace the wild world we destroyed to plant your soy, there won’t be any animals or plants for any of us to eat. And very soon. The solution requires animal life be problematically abundant as well, so humans will need to continue consuming them. As well as globally embrace the consumption of insects.
Specialized diets put the entire human population and the future of life on this planet at risk. Eat a little bit of everything. And if you can, try to support more life than you need to consume to live. That’s an ideal that is possible, and would drastically improve global conditions moving forward. Veganism is a corporate scam and cannot exist. It’s meant to put you in a binary conflict and distract as many of you as possible from reality.

I’m very pro vegetable based diet for all the reasons you describe except the concept of plant based foods for a changed world being free from animal suffering. They are not.
It is impossible to grow vegetables without killing millions of animals. The bugs, worms,, small reptiles/amphibians might not be fluffy, feathery and cute but they and their habitats are destroyed when we till the soil to plant our foods.
Particularly when the growth of human population is out of control and no plan to change that aspect of our self destructive activity as a species, there is no way to feed humans on a world wide scale and prevent the destruction of billions of smaller animals.

Plant based diet, if not consumed correctly, is nutrition deficient and can be dangerous. This video should emphasize on how to eat a healthy plant based diet instead of persuading audiences into it using personal stories but without a proper introduction to the diet. For any person with normal BMI, if you want to start eating plant based diet, make sure you consume enough B12, calcium, iron, animal AAs. Yes it does sound ridiculous that a supposedly healthier diet requires intake of vitamin and minerals.

Food production is responsible for one-quarter of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. Meat does not need to be produced so it is the vegan food causing this! Also, your fruits and vegetables are being transported all over the world and the US in order for you to get it!Transporting food over long distances generates great quantities of carbon dioxide emissions.

We can’t cut emissions and pollution without compromising on lifestyle. Over the last 17 years, since BP/Ogilvy coined ‘carbon footprint’, especially the last ten, there is a huge narrative to avoid meat and avoid petrol and diesel driven cars; a proliferation of ‘plant-based’ and substitute meat products for example in our supermarkets. Next up is eating insects.
I’m here to say it’s a big con. It’s a fantastic proposition – take something that is real and amplify it to create new economic opportunities. No-one can dissent, because dissent is crushed under a weight of evidence for climate change where you are denounced a loony for questioning it. There is very little critical analysis about it even. But assume there is a climate crisis: here is where it is going commercially – leases (debt) on new electric vehicles, debt on heat pumps instead of gas boilers; eating cheap filler (like insects). You will all lap it up. Taking a serious problem and using it to con people.

@Naff Brown I don’t believe all that looney crap I just think wealthy people want the masses to make the sacrifices whilst seizing new opportunities for a return.
They are using legitimate concerns to deflect from who is really responsible eg the big oil and energy companies are responsible for pollution and damaging the environment, but we are too busy lapping up their advertising to demand that they fix the problem properly.
At its most basic, our environment and energy is a global, macro issue, it’s a) caused by macro scale forces and therefore b) needs a macro solution. Processes that use energy create waste. It’s a fact. So let’s see some solutions from the biggest processors instead of deflecting it onto the individual consumer and citizen to adopt some substandard lifestyle the wealthiest generally don’t even follow.

Humans do some strange things after they’ve had a shock to the system. I always ask a Vegan, “why is it ok for animals to kill other animals, but not ok for humans to do it?” If it’s all about the earth and all life being in this together, then so are Humans.

I believe the big difference between humans non human animals that are carnivores is humans don’t require meat to survive. We are able to create and have a solid grasp and f science. Non human animals don’t.
