Veganism is an alternative and healthy lifestyle .
This lifestyle excludes the use of animals for clothing, food, or any other use.
The environemental veganism is based on the fact that the animal production by intensive agriculture is environmentally unsustainable.
Resources such as fossil fuels, water, and land and pollution are the primary environmental concerns with animal products.
The livestock industry is one of the largest contributors to environmental degradation worldwide, and modern practices of raising animals for food contributes on a "massive scale" to deforestation, air and water pollution, land degradation, loss of topsoil, climate change, the excessive use of resources including as oil and water, and loss of biodiversity.
People who adopt veganism for environmental reasons do so on the basis that veganism consumes far smaller amount of resources and causes less environmental damage than an animal-based diet.

I think that Veganism is very good I don't think I could like like that not because I don't want to but because I think it must be really hard, but I think if more people were vegans then there wouldn't be so many problemas about animals.

I really like vegetables and everything that this family, but still wouldn't waste a beautiful steak, grilled chicken, I think I can help the environment in other ways not give up eating meat, how to save water, energy care of our forests, etc.
