  • Working with Vegan Clients, 2013
    BY MarIsa Moore ast year, approximately 5 percent of American adults identified themselves as Lvegetarians — essentially unchanged from the 6 percent who were vegetarians in 1999 and 2001 — and fewer than 3 percent were vegan. However, Americans are incorporating more meatless meals into their diets, and plant- based lifestyles are garnering more attention, and arguably more acceptance, in mainstream culture. Ethics, environment and personal health are the most commonly cited motivations for adopting a strict vegetarian or vegan lifestyle in Western populations, and people who became vegan at a younger age cite ethical and environmental concerns as their primary motivations. While there are a number of other reasons why people are vegan or vegetarian — culture, religion and taste preference among them — ethical veganism is the intersection of animal liberation, human rights and environmental conservation. Vegans follow a plant-based diet with no animal flesh, eggs or dairy products. They also may exclude honey, leather goods or other products that compromise the lives or welfare of living creatures, opting instead for alternatives that support a nonviolent existence. The philosophy that animals have the right to a pain-free existence can be powerful Graphic courteSY OF VeganShirt.com. motivation.

  • Végéphobie, Une Nouvelle Vague « Ceci N'est Pas De La Végéphobie »… Mais Qu'est-Ce Donc ?
    Végéphobie, une nouvelle vague « Ceci n’est pas de la végéphobie »… Mais qu’est-ce donc ? Yves Bonnardel & Mata’i Souchon Le week-end des 6-7-8 octobre 2017 avait lieu la Veggie Pride, marche de la fierté des végétariennes1 de ne pas participer au massacre malgré la pression sociale (végéphobie)2. « La fierté exprimée par la Veggie Pride ne concerne pas une identité mais un geste et sa signification politique, qui fondamentalement est celle d’une désobéissance3. » L’événement avait débuté le vendredi 6 avec une rapide présentation de la part de Yves Bonnardel de l’historique de la Veggie Pride, expliquant qu’il y a vingt ans, on se faisait cracher en permanence à la gueule quand on disait qu’on était végétariennes pour les animaux (à l’époque, l’unique restaurant végé de Paris se faisait couramment cracher sur ses vitrines, ajoutait-il). Il rappelait que nombre de personnes reculaient devant le fait de devenir végés à cause de cette hostilité sociale, qu’une bonne partie cessait de l’être assez rapidement et que la plupart d’entre nous (végétariennes) n’osions pas dire que nous étions végés pour les animaux. Aujourd’hui, malgré des récents progrès en matière d’acceptabilité sociale du végétarisme éthique, beaucoup disent encore qu’elles le sont pour des raisons de santé, ou spirituelles, ou écologiques, alors qu’on a de sérieuses raisons de penser qu’elles le sont pas mal par souci des premiers concernés, les animaux maltraités et tués4. 1 Dans ce texte, si le genre est indéfini, nous utilisons le féminin neutre.

The ads that I sent you info about cost a total of $31,589, so that would be 62.5% of what we spent total for the year.” Vegan Outreach Report for Animal Charity Evaluators: Accomplishments for 2015 Since the mid-1990s, Vegan Outreach's main activity has been to produce educational booklets for activists to distribute, encouraging people to reduce and eliminate animal products from their diets. In 2015, we shipped 3.3 million of our booklets to activists. We spend the bulk of our funds on outreach to students. Between our paid outreach coordinators and volunteers, booklets were handed to almost 2.3 million students on 1,423 school campuses in 2015. This includes booklets handed to about 11,000 students at 49 schools in Canada, 314,000 students at 130 schools in Mexico, 80,000 students at 33 schools in Australia, 8,000 students at 7 schools in New Zealand, 35,000 students at 33 schools in the UK, and 7,000 students at 15 schools in Italy. Most of the remaining booklets were handed out at schools in the United States. In addition to school leafleting, booklets were handed to 715,000 people at other venues. We had the help of over 1,300 volunteers to achieve this leafleting, as well as about a dozen paid staff. We sent our Guide to Cruelty-Free Eating to 7,500 people who requested one from receiving our booklets or from our website.
