Why veganism?
In this post I wish talk you about why we should choose veganism like ethical principle.
The reason is non human animals feel, they have will and own interest. So, they are someone, not something: they are subjects. If we exploit them we are treating them like things. They are not exist to our wishes, they exist to own purposes. The other animals (I say "other animals" or "non human animals" because we are animals too) have our same basic interest like to live, to enjoy, to not suffer. If we apply the gold rule of ethics (do not do to others what you do not want them to do to you), we must respect those interests.
Veganism is an ethical principle that refuse the animal exploitation. Veganism is moral, it is not a diet or life style. In other hand, to exploit to other animals is not necessary because we can be totally healthy with a 100% vegetable diet. That it is support by nutrition science (*). Also, the industry of animal exploitation produces big damages to environment like water pollution, emission of greenhouse gases or deforestation (**).
