  1. @housepanther I am not sure of the effectiveness, but some #vegans are pushing a #ClimateChange angle because the "do it for the animals/they feel pain/they suffer" has been spoken about for decades, from the original founders of #TheVeganSociety to #PeterSinger in 1975 with his book #AnimalLiberation to the present (and interestingly his update to the book which got released this year has the climate as a big topic). Even though that is the best reason to #GoVegan, it seems to have increased the total vegans in the world to a few percentage points, which is a very slow change of pace for a movement that wants total abolition of animal exploitation.

    Going with the climate change angle might lead to more people realising that #veganism is the long term solution. If not for the animals sake, then at least for humanities very own survival, since the contributions to animal agriculture to the environment is not insignificant.
