Here’s 10 reasons to become a vegan environmentalist!
In this compelling keynote speech at Climate Action’s COP28 Innovation Zone in Dubai, Klaus Mitchell, founder of Plant Based News, brings to light the often overlooked yet critical role of our food systems in the climate crisis. With over a decade of experience, Klaus delves into extensive research and data to argue that a shift in our dietary habits is essential for meeting climate change targets. Despite advancements in other areas, he emphasizes that without addressing the impact of food production, especially animal agriculture, efforts to combat climate change remain incomplete.
Klaus’ speech is a call to action for policymakers, environmentalists, and individuals alike, highlighting the urgent need for a collective shift towards more environmentally friendly food choices.<
Join us in this eye-opening session as Klaus Mitchell presents a compelling case for rethinking our food systems to save our planet.

It is scary.
I just watched the climate crisis news through Taiwanese's mainstream news broadcasting about China's and America's and Canada's and Sweden's and Norway's and Russia's (and maybe other countries as well too).
I think it's the era of the climate crisis that we all fear for.
I'll wait and see as a Malaysian.
Don't Forget Also The wasting of resources use in The treatment of The diseases cause by animal products like The medicine factories, quimiotherapy most of The diseases can be avoided by eating a WFPD easily
Lots of vegan environmentalists. Theyāre called vegans.
Great job Klaus. Definitely doing your part. Much respect.
The facts have been provided. Itās up to everyone listening now to make the changes.
100% š
You can't be an environmentalist and not be Vegan thaats just hypocrisy.
Vegan for tye Animals šš¾šš±
ā¤ļøpeople ā¤ animals ā¤ļø environment,
man made climate change = hoax.
Brilliant!!!!!
When you look at the research,
it's apparent that climate change would be solved so much faster in a vegan scenario
I follow a plant based diet since 12 Sept. 2017. Good for my diabetes the planet and the animals ā„ļøšš
We don't have technical problems we have a deeply ingrained cultural problem. Carnism is the dominant culture and it is an aggressive, violent, and ecocidal culture that won't surrender to a handful of vegan environmentalists, who complain about carnism instead of providing a more attractive cultural alternative, if that is even still possible.
Vegan for the animals š¤
Personally I refrain from mentioning the environment at all, for 2 reasons.
1. I'm vegan for the animals.
2. All of the environmental arguments are usually with the heliocentric paradigm and rhetoric. I.e we have a greenhouse effect but also a sky vacuum. We have an atmosphere (sphere shaped air). Total cosh.
I am the only one in my university who promotes veganism š
(I'm studying to be an ecologist)
It's about time the Royal family set an example, they eat meat and travel short distances in helicopters all their cars are V8s . Bunch of hypocrites . Better still get rid of them , it's the 1% that cause most pollution.
A year or so ago I dropped my Sierra Club membership after 30 years or so of membership because of their refusal to address this topic. Prior to dropping out, I contacted all the candidates running for a board position and asked if they were vegan. One or 2 didn't respond and of the responders there were vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores. Only the vegans and vegetarians received my vote.
Sierra Club does do some wonderful things but they've had over 10 years to address the elephant in the room (since films FOK and Cowspiracy) and while it appeared they made a few minor efforts, (article on Alan Savoy, a vegan that stepped into "Mr Greens" Q&A, and maybe one other article about cows and the environment, not much in 13 years) it hasn't been enough for an organization of their size.

Absolutely brilliant speech, just need more people at these COP meetings to take notice…. hopefully very soon. Thank you for your dedication and devotion towards making a better world for animals and humans š
A vegan humanist as well. Look at the human cost of producing animal foods, then look at the human cost of producing plant foods. ItĀ“s the slaughterhouse workers and others in the meat chain that go insane.
Great speech.
Really Great Klaus. Thank you so much for all your efforts. Brilliant speech. ā¤
BRAVO Klaus! I couldn't have said it better myself. I used to think that I didn't care about the environment, only ethics and my health, but then I saw Cowspiracy. Just as Phillipa Langley recently exposed the truth about (the two prices in the tower) what we are taught in British schools is not factually correct, and that British historians have failed to investigate the true, so you are doing the same by highlighting the flaws in what the so-called Enviromentalists are claiming to achieve. Pat on the back, as your have by support. Q: If people eat fish, are they twice contributing to climate change, (1) fish consumption % and (2) transportation of the fish %?
I think the air transport industry could do a lot to off set its impact by only offering plant based meals, not just on the aeroplanes but also in the airports !
Amazing speach, Klaus! Thank you! Vegan for the animalsā¤

Very well done, Klaus.
Excellent argumentation!
What a great speech!
Incredible talk, well done. So many staggering facts in there, and you didnāt even touch on the appalling cruelty involved.
Keep lying about the environment. The more you lie, the more ex vegans and anti vegan you will make. Yall failed with the health argument, and will fail with the environment argument. The best thing for the environment is regenerative agriculture and perma culture. Not your soil destroying monocropping
Loving the level of confidence and assertiveness you display here. Keep it up!
This must shared and shared again !
Honestly, this line of reasoning to support veganism is much more likely to produce behavior change than merely feeling sorry for animals. When eating meat is basically screwing over humanity, suddenly there's a more personal stake (instead of steak, apparently). I wish more vegan promoters would use arguments like these.
Well done Klaus š šš
Incredible speech!
100000x kudos to Klaus. Thank you, thank you, thank you.š
Bravo!! šš¼
Thank you so much, Klaus. Superb speech
What a speech!! Really informative
Convincing me to work towards sustaining humanity…that's gonna be a slog. Not being a prick to animals is much easier.
If I'm having a bad day, benefiting humanity might be one of the strongest argument against veganism…
You rich vegans could buy land and start vegan communities, and yet for whatever you don't. Very sketchy. As a vegan radical, it is top priority to militarize via land purchasing and training. This is war and you people are treating it as though it isn't.
Fantastic talk thank you Klaus
Ok- how bout enough people question chemtrails and we do something about it.
shout outs to klaus
Great presentationššššššthank youššš
Very Excited for the 2023 End of the Year Vegan PBN Film! š
Klaus, once again you have very eloquently put forth a wonderful speech that no one in their right mind can debate. Thank you for continuing to educate in a way that everyone can understand. š
Loved the speech. Animal agriculture is ALWAYS the elephant in the room when it comes to climate change. So glad to hear it being spoken about.
nice speech. i always get disturbed with the fishing industry. so much plastic waste. and generaly ppl consider fish as the only and best source of omega and what not.
Pretty staggering that some can claim to be an environmentalist but still consume animal products when its like something they could actually change themselves.
Well here we are and will you keep ignoring us? We (reasonably) believe that the system that is enslaving and destroying nature also does so to the animals and humans šThe Connections (2021) [short documentary]š
Brilliant speech
nobody, including the faux environmentalists, are interested to address the cruel animal factories in the climate change discours, because they've direct or indirect vested interests.
Great job, bravo.
Wait you mean we actually have to CHANGE?
Great Video!!
They donāt listen my guy!!
Great Video as always. 10 pro vegan arguments in less than 15 minutes is perfect to share with friends and family <3
Joseph Poore has redacted his articles about veganism being environmentally friendly ā¦ the IPCC is stating that rice š¾ š farming creates more GHG emissions ( methane) than beef farming
Eating meat and feeding from the breast of another species is such a disgusting addiction. All that suffering and destruction to feed an addiction.
Veganism is woke! It is completely unethical (you want to remove all wildlife and harm trillions of animals with your massive mono cropping- and vegans said they would harm any animals or humans that try to mess with their mono cropping- and you want to replace all wildlife with human infrastructures. Vegans laugh when we mention how trillions of animals are harmed to produce food for vegans. You cause deforestation and harm eco systems ), veganism is based on a religion that is against godās natural circle of life, and veganism is completely toxic to humans (anti nutrient, not bio available, and naturally toxic! ) Your mono cropping equipment and packaging factories put out more gas than one cow! Stop the vegan propaganda! Veganism is ending! Vegan propaganda of āsave animalsā and āsave planetā is all a fake agenda to trick humans into it! Terrible! Veganism is an oxymoron!
Great job Klaus, thanks for all your work.
Well said and we can only hope that common sense will prevail and āthe peopleā will educate themselves with the truth which is not easy to find as we know the mighty $,ā¬,Ā„,Ā£ control what the majority read and hear. If āweā as individuals can stop exploiting these poor souls, and realise what is truly making us sick and reliant on drugs. Then maybe we have a chance to get Healthy soils and Clean airā¦..Because the controlling forces of Money will never do it! The Plant Based Movement (whole food plant based!!) is one huge movement now heading us hopefully in the right direction! Thank you so much for all your hard work and for trying to bring this truth to the People! ā¤
Excellent speech. You hit all the right notes. It is a painful frustration that it is always the elephant in the room…..some day hopefully that won't be the case.
Very good presentation! š When will people finally see and understand how disasterous animal farming is? āØšš„
Great speech
I've been vegan for about three decades and vegetarian before that. I try to educate those around me including sharing samples of just how delicious and easy a plant based lifestyle can be. We must keep sharing the message.
Amazing speech!!! ššš ā¤
Vegans are vegans for the animals and some show little intrest in the environment which is a condition, after all, what is left of the wild animal population rely on a healthy environment.
Klaus, Thank you for all you do! It can be hard to speak out when it seems like very few want to hear the truth. You are an inspiration.
The reason we donāt hear much about it is because people can IMMEDIATELY STOP eating meat.
But even if 1 million people decided to stop living off of fossil fuel. . . they canāt. Itās no longer down to an individual choice, few people are able to go back to growing their own vegetables and fruits. Ā
We are STUCK in a system of monetary capitalism that we almost have to let it consume itself and die out, and hopefully humankind will survive, and be the wiser for it. Itās 50/50.
Animal agriculture is 8.2 percentā¦ petroleum industry causes more pollution than cows eating grass and farting
Thank you for this amazing talk! šš
I would love to live in a place where we are all vegans…and its just a normal thing. Also, the idea of someone eating an animal is a crazy person.
Keep fighting Klaus!
Thank you, Klaus! Such a great and extremely informative speech!ā¤
Will definitely learn more of these numbers and statistics as they are so powerful.
Vegan/plant-based for 10 years now š
Impressing speech! Really telling it like it is. I wish to see environmental debates and organizations to focus on these issues instead of ignoring them.
Why doesn't this have millions of likes yet? This is an amazing speech, Klaus. I tell people this same thing on social media and in the real world every day. It's rare that anyone listens, but if we can encourage 10-20% to heed your advice, we may just have a chance of bankrupting the industry. Keep it up!
Good one
Great speech! š
