Join the Animal Law Program for a lunchtime advocacy talk with Matt Halteman!
Experts agree that going vegan is a powerful ingredient of the cure for what ails us: climate change, diseases of affluence, antibiotic resistance, future pandemics, and a morally indefensible food system. But nobody wants to take the medicine. Why? It’s partly because going vegan is perceived as a life-negating obligation obsessed with policing things one can’t do.
Matt Halteman offers a transformed vision of vegan living by pivoting from obligation to opportunity, focusing on what we gain: an abundant and healthful diet, innovative style, expanded consciousness of the lives of others, genuine interspecies kinship, and increased hope for social justice and environmental sustainability. Going vegan, it turns out, is one of the biggest joy-aggregators out there if we have the vision to see it!
Lunch will be provided! Register here.
