What would you consider to be the greatest danger to a more ethical future?

If it's any kind of consolation whatsoever...you did it for more than just the animals. You did it for me. Yours and your friends' work is the equivalent of an answer to my prayers. Thank you. I know I speak for a lot of people who feel this way. I can't thank you and your friends enough.

Plenty of starter posts and ideas at r/vegan. It's very easy to try it out. You just starting eating vegan...and boom you're done. You can turn back anytime you want.

Another method that got me started was simply every other day.

I went reluctantly to both vegetarian in 91 and vegan in 2012. But never looked back on either. Once your mind changes animal products lose their enticing power. Quite frankly a lot of stuff I used to eat just looks disgusting now. Point I'm trying to make is - it's not like kicking an addiction. It doesn't gnaw at you. A switch fires off.

I always like to add that it feels good to make a decision. To leave your comfort zone and be swayed by your own new found principles. If that is what is so special about being human, being capable of ethical reasoning, then we should engage in it more.

Well I guess I have to ask. I only peeked at about 30 seconds of the Central valley Meat link video. That's all I could take. What major coping strategies or common reactions do you find your investigators experience? Do some people crack up? Do some weather it well? How did your investigative work affect you?

One really compelling reason is that in the case of "The Most Good You Can Do"...he is collecting money from people affluent enough to read philosophy books and forwarding the profits directly the groups he has researched as effective charities. http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/32lnif/im_peter_singer_australian_moral_philosopher_and/cqcee01?context=3
