I understand that when people avoid animal products for health reasons it’s considered plant based rather than vegan, but what about environmental motivations? I still consider myself vegan because for me it is an ethical stance, but I’m curious about others opinions on this. Personally, animal cruelty is my secondary reason for being vegan, but if I didn’t care about that and my only reason was the environment would I still be considered vegan?Nicole Carrigan answered 3 years ago • Questions1320 views3 answers0 votesCrop
