Climate change and related problems like habitat destruction and loss of biodiversity are the greatest threats to human existence the world has ever seen, and, at least in the US, we will not be able to count on the federal government to be any help. That means that the solution needs to be on all of us. There are many ways each of us can take steps to slow climate change and habitat destruction, but the most significant and effective step that each of us can take is to stop supporting the vastly destructive animal agriculture system. This is as simple as taking animal products off your plate. It's a big lifestyle change, but thanks to all the amazing and delicious plant-based products on the market, there has never been an easier time to eliminate animals from your diet. Vegan Street has lots of helpful tips to help your transition.
