The Simple Case for Going Vegan

This essay aims to show that veganism follows from our own core values. The essay is divided into two parts: the first part presents a simple argument for veganism based on a widely shared ethical principle, while the second part argues that veganism follows from a basic commitment not to discriminate against beings based on their external appearance.
