Is it Vegan to Wear Second Hand Leather, Wool, or Silk? (Re-Broadcast) Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, Joyful Vegan 2024-10-18 | PRE-ORDER COLLEEN'S NEW BOOK at http://www.joyfulvegan.com/preorder A dilemma a lot of new vegans grapple with is what to do with all the animal-derived products they have from their pre-vegan days — leather shoes, wool sweaters, down-filled pillows, etc. — and a question a lot of people ask is "is it vegan to wear / buy second hand leather, wool, silk, etc. In both cases, the harm has been done, but there are a lot of arguments for and against wearing these items, including: being vegan means not wearing any animal products at all, so you can't be vegan and do so. even wearing second hand leather is giving tacit approval that it's okay to kill animals for their skin. second hand leather is more environmentally friendly than new synthetic leather. And so on.

BEEF IS BULL Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, Joyful Vegan 2024-04-25 | Whatever the barometer (greenhouse gas emissions, land use, soil depletion, water consumption, or water contamination), meat and dairy have a significantly higher environmental impact than any plant food.Beef is the worst — whether it's organic, local, sustainable, or "regenerative." It's all bull. If the world population shifted to a plant-based diet, the benefits would be incalculable, but it’s just not a realistic expectation. If only half the population went meat-free only two days a week, we would cut greenhouse gas emissions, land use, and water use by a considerable amount. From the animals’ standpoint, the ideal amount of meat to consume is zero. From an environmental or health perspective, the answer is always MORE PLANTS. LESS MEAT, DAIRY, AND EGGS. http://www.joyfulvegan.com

𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐌 𝐈𝐒 𝐀 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐌! 🙅♀️ Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, Joyful Vegan 2024-04-15 | There’s a temptation to talk about products / things, activities, and practices as being “vegan” or “not vegan.” For instance, I've talked at length about the claim that almonds are “not vegan” because farmers rent bees to pollinate their monocrops. 🐝This is a real issue that has serious consequences, but framing this as a “vegan” issue is problematic.This is not a VEGAN issue. It’s a HUMAN issue. It’s an AGRICULTURAL issue. It’s a POLICY issue.Other examples include declarations that:-𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍-𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐦 𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍-𝐜𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍-𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤-𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍-𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐫 𝐟𝐥𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥This is what I mean about overusing the word vegan and narrowing its definition. 🙅♀️We want EVERYONE to care and to take action — whether they’re vegan or not!I think framing these as HUMAN issues rather than VEGAN issues leads to potentially more people realizing that it’s worth trying to do the right thing in this world — to act as compassionately as possible — even if you can’t be perfect.Even if you don’t identify as vegan. ❤️(more at http://www.joyfulvegan.com)

While Buddhism-inspired vegetarianism has been part of the Japanese culture since around the 6th and 7th centuries, "veganism" as a concept is very new. In this first episode, I provide a frame through which to understand the challenges and the threads of eating plant-based in Japan, including the influence of Buddhism and other factors that resulted in a mostly plant-based culture for most of its history how the move toward modernizing Japan — as of 1868 — contributed to the increase in meat consumption the regional aspect of Japanese cuisine the "foodie" aspect of Japanese cuisine, which can also lead to food rituals and ceremonies, as well as fodder for satire I also provide number suggestions for what to look for generally if you are traveling in Japan as a joyful vegan, including which items typically have animal products what and how to ask for vegan options where to find the best options as a vegan Enjoy! —————— Don't forget to support this podcast through Patreon or as an Apple Subscriber for bonus material, early access to episodes, and other perks, depending on the option you choose.

𝐖𝐇𝐘 𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐓 𝐕𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐍𝐒 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐒? 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐅𝐄𝐄𝐋 𝐏𝐀𝐈𝐍, 𝐓𝐎𝐎! 🙄 Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, Joyful Vegan 2024-03-04 | How many times have I heard “Why don’t you care about plants, Little Miss Vegan?? 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧, 𝐓𝐨𝐨!”Gotcha statements like these are simply a distraction from the real issue at hand: 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒍𝒔 𝑫𝑶 𝒔𝒖𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒇𝒆𝒆𝒍 𝒑𝒂𝒊𝒏.Most of us have no problem pulling lettuce from the ground or cutting the limb off of a tree, but most people are unable or unwilling to cut the limb off of an animal or stab him in the heart.And even if YOU are able to do this, 🫣 it still doesn’t negate the suffering of the animal.All we can do is act on what we know to be true, and 𝐰𝐞 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡. The assertion that plants may or may not be able to suffer doesn’t justify causing pain to animals.Being vegan is simply about doing the best we can to not contribute to violence against animals when we have the power to do so. 𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙚 𝙙𝙤 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙖 𝙡𝙤𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙤 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩.👉️ So, don’t get distracted next time someone accuses you of being a hypocrite for caring about cows while you’re eating potatoes (and they’re eating cows). ➡️ 𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐒!❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱Don’t do nothing because you can’t do everything.

Pretzels Were Made for Vegans: The History of the Holy Knot Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, Joyful Vegan 2024-03-01 | The history of the delicious, soft, pillowy pretzel goes back hundreds of years and demonstrates once again that we have more food traditions that reflect abstaining from animal products than indulging in them. Take a listen to the Medieval origins of this food, how it saved a city, and why it's associated with Easter. —————— Don't forget to support this podcast through Patreon or as an Apple Subscriber for bonus material, early access to episodes, and other perks, depending on the option you choose.
