Vegan advocates tout saving over 365 animal lives a year

Original: Why go vegan? 🌱 Save more than 365 animal lives every single year (less when you eat from larger animals like cows) 🌱 Cu

Vegan advocates are promoting the lifestyle with a set of claims: that going vegan saves more than 365 animal lives a year, cuts your carbon footprint roughly in half, saves around 1.1 million gallons of water annually, and lowers the risk of heart disease and cancer. The pitch also highlights that eating larger animals like cows means fewer lives saved, alongside appeals to enjoy plant-based food.

Why now: Ongoing public debate about veganism's environmental, ethical and health benefits keeps such arguments circulating.
