Frequently asked questions
Common questions about the vegan way of life
What does the word ‘vegan’ really mean?
Living vegan is not limited to one’s diet, but extends to all aspects of life where our fellow animals are treated as commodities, rather than as sentient beings with an interest in their own lives and freedom. Whether raised in intensive confinement or on small family farms, there are no exceptions to this as long as animals are being bought, sold, and used as economic production units.
