Vegan-Friendly Restaurants WELCOME Hello and thank you for taking a look inside this guide! We, the Animal Advocates of South Central PA, created it for you to use as a compass on your path towards a kinder, healthier life. We are an organization promoting a conscious and compassionate lifestyle which can be summed up in one word: Veganism. It isn’t like other vegan guides, though. It’s tailored for individuals living in South Central Pennsylvania (SCPA) to make your transition as easy as possible. We will lightly touch on the reasons to go vegan (but we highly suggest doing research elsewhere!) and how to make those changes. We will cover everything from where to go out to eat on a Friday night, to what cruelty-free body care brands to check out, and everything in between. We would like to thank you for considering this impactful, wonderful lifestyle, and hope we can assist you on your journey! After exploring this guide, please visit our website, which has many helpful resources, including local restaurant lists, blog articles, and links for further reading. www.animaladvocatesscpa.com Follow us on social media to see what we are up to! “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better”. -Maya Angelou 2 Vegan Guide for South Central PA WHY GO VEGAN? For The Animals | For The Environment For Our Health | For Everything! There are many reasons people go vegan. In some cases, it’s for the environment. Animal agriculture is a significant ecological problem, contributing more greenhouse gas emissions than the entire transportation sector. A plant-based vegan diet is the most environmentally-friendly diet. It saves over 1,000 gallons of water every day and lowers your carbon footprint by 50%*. A well-planned vegan diet is also one of the most healthful for people. The current healthcare system is plagued by chronic diseases (heart disease, diabetes, cancer), the majority of which are impacted by poor diet and inactivity. Those following a vegan diet experience a fraction of the chronic diseases as their meat-eating counterparts (source: Adventist Study). Additionally, the World Health Organization has categorized processed meats including bacon, sausage, deli slices, and ham as Group 1 carcinogens — which means that there is strong evidence that processed meats cause cancer. The most prevalent reason to go and stay vegan is for the animals. Nightmarish cruelty and violence are inherent in animal agriculture. Common (and legal) practices include chicks having half of their beaks cut off without anesthesia; seals and dolphins being strangled in fishing nets; and piglets having their teeth ripped out and being castrated without anesthesia. Treating our fellow earthlings like this is unnecessary and can’t be justified. It’s also important to remember that even the “humanely” and organically raised animals still end up being killed years before their natural deaths in horrific and unfathomable ways. * Pimentel, David & Pimental, Marcia. “Sustainability of meat-based and plant-based diets and the environment”. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. September 2003. vol 78. no 3 660S-663S Animal Advocates of South Central PA 3 HOW DO I GO VEGAN? SCPA Vegan Mentoring Program We offer a free mentor program for anyone interested in starting their vegan journey! We match you with a mentor in your immediate area to help with whatever you need during your transition. It might be grocery shopping, meal ideas, home care and cosmetic product swaps, recommending specific resources, or just someone to talk to for support. We even have mentors that can assist with nutrition and weight training. Best of all, our mentors are passionate about veganism and have a great desire to help. If you would like a mentor, or want to become a mentor, contact us at [email protected]. Product Switches There is much more to living vegan than eating plant-based foods. Animal-derived products are found in many everyday items, such as clothing, shoes, accessories, and cosmetics. While it’s not practical to donate your old clothes right away, it’s easy to select vegan options as you add to your wardrobe. Millions of cows, horses, cats, dogs, sheep, ostriches, alligators, snakes, and other animals are used for their skins. Wool, feathers, silk, cashmere, suede, mohair, and leather are some of the animal products found in clothing and apparel. Luckily, new animal-friendly and eco-conscious materials are constantly being developed! Mushroom and pineapple leather are a few recent advancements in the fashion industry. Animals are not only used in the fashion industry; they are also still used for product testing and research studies. 100 million animals are killed every year in U.S. testing laboratories alone. Animals used in labs include guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, primates, dogs, and cats. 4 Vegan Guide for South Central PA HOW DO I GO VEGAN? Just as with clothing, making the transition to vegan makeup and cosmetics is not difficult, but it does take time. As you run out of bath, beauty, and cleansing items, swap them for animal-friendly options. Many brands are easily accessible, which makes transitioning to cruelty-free products a piece of vegan cake! You can find cruelty-free vegan brands at places like Target, grocery stores, and pharmacies. The term cruelty-free means a product has not been tested on animals–it does not necessarily mean it is vegan. If a product is vegan, it will often have the word vegan on it or a vegan-friendly symbol.

It is perhaps the first scholarly attempt to study the vegetarian community in China that does not treat it as an Oriental phenomenon isolated from any outside influence.

  • Meat Consumption and Potential Reduction for Environmental and Public Health Benefits
    MEAT CONSUMPTION AND POTENTIAL REDUCTION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH BENEFITS by GARRETT LENTZ A thesis submitted to the University of Otago in partial fulfilment for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Geography June 2019 Abstract The focus of this thesis was to better understand meat consumption and investigate how a shift to more plant-based diets may best be promoted. The various environmental impacts linked to animal agriculture were explored and a movement towards more plant-based diets was found as a solution that could alleviate environmental impacts, along with the added benefit of improving public health and helping to safeguard future food security. Shifting a behaviour that is as prevalent as meat consumption is no easy task however, as high rates of meat intake have become normalised in many developed nations, being influenced not only by the desires of individual actors’, but also structures within society that encourage continued production and consumption. Potential economic, regulatory, and informational measures to encourage meat reduction were explored and after weighing multiple factors, the potential for information provision to shift consumer meat intake held promise. However, before further inquiry into potential information provision measures, it was advisable to first obtain a more thorough understanding of consumers’ meat consumption within the relatively understudied nation of New Zealand. Thus, the first study of the thesis sought to better understand New Zealand consumers’ meat intake through the distribution of a nationwide questionnaire. Awareness of meat’s environmental impacts was determined to be low and the most common motivations for reducing meat were considerations of cost and health.

  • Spring Newsletter 2016
    2016 Additions to our Farm Family Silky & Satin Two lambs have a new lease on life at our sanctuary. Silky and Satin (right) were born on February 7, 2016 on a production farm, destined for slaughter. Soon after birth they had their tails cut off and their ears hole-punched for identity tags, with no an- esthesia. Their mom rejected them, and both lambs sustained broken legs. The farm did not want to care for them so they lived in the vet’s dining room while their legs healed and then they joined our Safe Haven family. They spend their days bounc- ing around, exploring the farm and sneaking into the feed room whenever they get the chance. We are so pleased to have these two cuties as part of our farm family! Amos the Rooster Amos was rescued by a compassionate person in a nearby town. The little rooster had a deformed leg and was being chased and pecked by 4 other roosters who lived in the yard. A neighbor took pity on the little rooster and let him hide under his deck; Amos would only come out at night when the other roosters had gone to bed. Here at Safe Haven, Amos moved in with three friendly hens: Stretch, Rachel and Ardsley (her story is on Pg. 2). IN THIS ISSUE For the first time in his life, Amos wasn’t pecked and chased. He joined the hens to eat, and started taking dust baths and Additions to our Farm Family 1, 2 Memories of Claria 3 hunting for bugs in the grass with them.

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

  • An Audience Research on the Documentary What the Health
    To believe or not to believe? An audience research on the documentary What The Health Trang Nguyen Ha Linh May 2020 Msc Media and Communication Lund University Supervisor: Tobias Linné Examiner: Gustav Persson 1 ABSTRACT This research employs qualitative methods to look at the audience site of veganism documentary What The Health. Through semi-structured interviews with 13 participants (6 non-vegetarians and 7 vegetarians), the thesis attempts to understand the self and individual response to veganism portrayal, truth claims and how viewers learn from the documentary. Exploring audiences’ media practices enables researchers to understand diverse strategies that audiences use to engage with and reflect on the changing nature of contemporary media (Hill 2005 and Hill 2007), especially with factual genre like documentary which occupies “an intermediate space” between fact and fiction (Hill 2007, p. 89) and goes through a reformation in the new media environment with the support from digital technology, platforms and infrastructures (Nash et al. 2014). The research is theoretically informed by the concept of spectrum of engagement (Annette Hill), double mode of engagement (Annette Hill) and genre work (Annette Hill). The findings illustrate that audiences have multiple modes of engagement with the documentary and what they learn from the film is diverse. In terms of truth claims, they employ many different criteria to evaluate including performances, authenticity and even the context of the documentary. As documentary audiences, they are well-aware of the idea of “the two worlds”. Their engagement affirms the arguments from Hill (2008), Corner (2005), Nichols (2001) and Lewis (2004) that audiences expect the documentary to show them reality.
