Dear Steemians,
For those who don’t know me, I’m extremely passionate about animal rights and about the environment in general, and a little over a year ago, I’ve decided to stop eating animal products (at least most of them!).
Someone had pointed out to me that I was being a hypocrite for calling myself an animal lover, because even though I loved cats, dogs and other house pets, I was eating cows, pigs and chickens without giving it any further thought. That’s my story!
I regularly write about this topic, sharing my thoughts on what’s happening in the food industry, the challenges of converting to vegetarianism or veganism, and sharing vegan recipes. My dearest wish is “convert” more people like me, who haven’t realized yet that they are harming animals as well as the environment. My goal is to grow the vegan community world-wide by spreading knowledge and creating awareness via the Steemit platform.
I have read plenty of articles of fellow vegan steemians, and I feel a need to connect with them on a more personal level. Commenting on their articles is just not enough, and it often ends there unfortunately. If I feel this way, I’m sure many others also do. Therefore, I’ve taken the initiative to create a community on Discord called Vegans of Steemit.
