People really think of animals as just meat. I know I did, at least with respect to what I was taught were 'food animals' as a child. Had people been able to tell me that they had personalities like cats and dogs, and that a well-planned vegetarian [now vegan] diet was actually healthier, I would have made the switch decades earlier. I'd love to see more articles in your 'activism' category. We can influence others to adopt a more plant-based lifestyle. Even if people take little steps in that direction, that shows a shift in mindset and a shifting in personal values, which are important in the transition to veganism.
