It's time to face facts: Most people stop being environmentalists when they sit down to eat.

Elephants have the largest brains of any mammal on the face of the Earth. They are creative, altruistic and kind.

Every time we consume meat, eggs or dairy foods, we contribute to ecological devastation and the wasteful misuse of resources on a global scale.

It is only human supremacy, which is as unacceptable as racism and sexism, that makes us afraid of being more inclusive.

A lot of people have culturally induced ethical blindness, but they can be cured!

Perhaps one of the most important things you can do for human beings is wean them off an animal-based diet. It hardens the arteries and runs up our health-care costs. The last thing a poor person can afford is a heart attack or cancer or a stroke. And that's all linked to a meat-based diet. I think animal liberation is human liberation.
