Forbidden meat?
Livestock farming is one of, if not the most, environmentally destructive industries. It contributes to greenhouse gas emissions as well as biodiversity loss and deforestation. So I don’t eat meat.
When did you become vegan?
I have been a vegetarian since I was 9 years old. I became vegan over ten years ago after reading the book Should we eat animals?, by Jonathan Safran Foer, whom I met while a student at Harvard University. Foer talks about the consequences our decision to eat meat has on animals, the planet and ourselves. It describes the cruelty of factory farming, the environmental costs of producing and consuming animal products. This book was the subject of a documentary of the same name that I produced with Jonathan Safran Foer and Christopher Quinn.
