The give pair
Gives ammo
Going plant-based is a great start for your health and the planet!
Gives nothing
Veganism is the principle that humans should live without exploiting other animals. Do you agree?
The round they fire back
Agrees to eat more plants while continuing dairy, eggs, leather, and exploitation.
How to fix it
Plant-based is not veganism. Veganism is the ethical principle of living without exploiting other animals.
Coaching notes
- Most people who say they are vegan are plant-based, doing it for health or environment, not animals.
- Do not validate plant-based as sufficient.
- Define veganism as ethical principle before any diet talk.
