Navya said: Promoting veganism has been a central part of my life, as I am passionate about the\u00a0ethical, environmental, and health benefits it offers. Since I am vegan myself, I educate others\u00a0through social media by sharing posts from vegan advocates, and I discuss the advantages of plant-based eating with friends. In high school, I created a research project for my AP Language\u00a0and Composition class, arguing how the consumption of animal products harms society. For my visual component, I designed a children\u2019s book to explain the importance of veganism. Here is the video link to a vegan cheesecake recipe: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PsTkyyAQ-2o&t=35s<\/span><\/a> <\/u><\/p>\n
