The trend of veganism which is rising will high level may be due to the confluence of them some factors and indicating new paradigm about diet and lifestyle choice. A motivational factor which is gaining more significance is the rise of ethical concerns. When people become familiar with the environmental and moral aspects of the factories’ farming and animals exploitation, they feel remorse and also recognize their eating habits, expressing concern for living things.
Environmental concern claims a key position in the increasing popularity of the movement of veganism. As the degree of damage to the natural environment that is caused by the traditional animal agriculture becomes evident, people are, more and more often going for the plant based diets, by this they do it to minimize their carbon footprint and at the same time mitigate climate change. This given fact, plant-based lifestyles go in hand with conservation of natural resources harmonizes with our overall attitude towards environmental guardianship.
The health aspects have also led the trend of veganism especially with a cumulative number of studies, these showing plant-based diets to be in the long run healthier than most animal-based diets. A plant-heavy diet with abundant fruits, vegetables, and whole foods is significantly correlated with the lower risk of diseases and preference for long and healthy life as it attracts those who follows this approach and consider their health in the first place.
The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear the word vegan is probably fruits and vegetables, but the growing number of vegan alternative products helps people transition from group one to group three. From the artificial foods dedicated to beef or poultry taste and texture of plants to a variety of recipes with plant ingredients, we have now a larger culinary range for vegans. The old idea of deprivation is no longer discussed.
However, the fact that veganism is now a powerful symbol of the increased awareness that ranges from personal health to ethics to environmental issues only seems to be the very necessary response to the growing environmental crisis. With more people actually seeing how sourcing of food products is related to the health of animals and the planet as a whole, veganism has established itself as a significant and responsible means to a more compassionate and sustainable way of life for everybody.
