For some people, turning vegan straight-off-the bat can be difficult. For others, it poses no problem at all to suddenly stop eating animal products, and once they’ve seen the light, they see no other option but to stop completely. Many people begin their vegan journey by reducing their meat intake, intending to turn eventually.
Whilst some, including flexitarians and vegetarians, cut down without necessarily ever intending to go vegan — hoping to have some impact in helping the environment, or to save a number of animal lives, rather than none. Should we encourage these people in cutting back? We asked for your input.
