WE are in “Veganuary”, when the charity “Veganuary” suggests we should go vegan for January.
The idea is to eat a totally plant-based diet, which would stop the breeding of animals for slaughter, considerably reduce greenhouse gas production and make feeding the world’s population and preserving its forests much easier.
However, for some, it seems very daunting.
I'm one of those and remain a vegetarian who still eats eggs and dairy products.
My husband is a so-called “flexitarian” but he takes great care to buy meat produced in environmentally-friendly ways.
Ever since I visited a battery farm, which looked unspeakably cruel, I have bought free range eggs.
