In his book “Vegan Revolution: Saving Our World, Revitalizing Judaism,” Dr. Richard Schwartz illustrates how veganism is now more relevant than ever, providing a means for people of all faiths to address hunger, protect the environment, conserve water, promote justice, and show compassion for animal-people and the Earth. “I think people are becoming aware of how poorly animals are treated. And in addition, I think there’s been a tremendous increase in plant-based substitutes for [animal-people] meat and other animal products. Another important thing is the young people especially are moving toward vegetarianism, veganism.” “I pointed out the very strong teachings in every religion. We know God would want us to be healthier, have compassion upon animals. He wouldn’t want the horrible, horrible treatments on factory farms. So, every religion is based on compassion, but the realities are far from that.”“Veganism definitely relates to peace. And also, climate change makes war, and violence, terrorism more likely because according to climate experts, unfortunately, it’s going to be tens of millions of desperate, hungry refugees fleeing from the heat waves, the droughts, the wildfires, the floods, etc. ” “And again, the climate change issue, and it’s not just that, but the other negative, negative effects on the environment – deforestation, soil erosion and depletion, coral reefs being destroyed.” “And a third important thing is that animal-based diets and agriculture violate at least six Jewish and other religions’ mandates: take care of our health, treat animals with compassion, protect the environment, conserve natural resources, help hungry people, and seek and pursue peace. Of course, this is the future for humanity, and we must, must, shift towards plant-based [vegan] diets in order to get to live a better, decent habitable world for future generations.”
