would call HSUS an animal rights group (after all, HSUS doesn't even do that). And it usually involves exchanges with non-vegans. I could debate about language all day, with vegans and non-vegans. I spent several years writing, daily, and often with shock, about how, for instance, the NYT- -the New York Times (OMG!!!!!)--would

I want to talk about why we shouldn't be using animals and that it's infinitely easier to be a vegan than it was 20 years ago. With more than 2 million members across the globe, PETA is the largest animal advocacy group and comparable in size to the human rights organization, Amnesty International. But I don't want to talk about PeTA.

Both animal rights groups and animal welfare groups use "compassion" frequently. Or vegan pumpkin pie. Why all the quotation marks? Because I've been thinking about the evolution of my own thinking--and languaging--regarding animal rights. Then again, so do people who kill animals for a living. The Nonviolent Carnivore"?

Particularly when vegans and animal rights advocates are a tiny percentage of the population, some find it necessary and desirable to go to a place where they are among friends (for the most part). If that's what makes the people in that particular insider group happy, that's fine. There's tremendous appeal in cliques.

First, check out " The Vegan Solution: An Ideal Whose Time Has Come " over at Care2. And former vegan, Chuck Roomi, who says veganism isn't practical "For people who do not have a desire to eat exotic foods from thousands of miles away, or mechanically-formulated suplements" also warrants a response. So many things to say today.

Why not make this the year that you get serious and take a meaningful step toward improving your health and reducing your waistline by experimenting with a vegan diet for 21 days. It has never been easier to try out a vegan diet. Today marks Day 1 of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine's 21-Day Vegan Kickstart.

Finally, I was asked to participate in a new TNR group in my town that started largely because of my oodles of questions and setting of policy for Project Treadstone! It'll be my area's first group dedicated to reducing the feral cat population! And of course, I will use the meetings as an opportunity for vegan outreach.

Some fight for veganism, some against factory farms, some against experimentation, poaching, habitat encroachment, etc. There is a group for every cause. (I believe they can speak, but in their own language that we can understand if we only listen.) I also believe that we are a fragmented movement. Who is our leader? Best Friends?

First, Chris directed me to ePub Bud , which appears to be a timely and fantastic idea given my recent plea for more books for children about veganism. If there's a local group that is in need of a skill that you have (grantwriting, newsletter writing, website development, photography), I'd imagine that's a possibility.

I have been working in the animal movement for several decades on 2 continents, and have been vegetarian for nearly 40 years and vegan for 25 of those years. Alley Cat Rescue serves vegan food at our gatherings, and encourages all groups that work with cats and dogs to do the same.

The meat and dairy industries want to keep their operations away from the public’s discriminating eyes, but as groups like PETA and the Humane Society have shown us in their graphic and disturbing undercover investigations, factory farms are mechanized madness and slaughterhouses are torture chambers to these unfortunate and feeling beings.

Chris from Beijing works to get books translated for the groups he works with, and I can say for certain that you'd never take your access to books for granted again if you heard what he has to go through to get books to China. They don't see veganism as related to their fight against dog racing, at first (or second. ).

“Free range” does not solve the problem of painful debeaking, enormously oversized flocks or the unnatural isolation of the birds from other sexes and age groups. Let chickens be chickens, and avoid the whole moral dilemma by going vegan. All of the male hatchlings are either smothered or ground up alive. 13, 2007
