  Well, one plan involves convincing western politicians and the companies that pay for them, to self regulate. The other involves personal choice.

  So I guess I chose the easy one.

  Also vegans do participate in animal activism of course. They just won’t argue for better ways to slaughter animals.

    but if it’s ineffective, then it is no better.

      Well, your graph could just as easily support my position as it could go against it.

      I see a line that could be higher if not for the personal choice of a collective of vegans, vegetarians, and generally healthier people.

      You see proof vegans aren’t making a difference. Where’s your proof that the line is unaffected by vegans? Do you have anything else that proves being vegan is an effort in futility?

        no, it’ can’t. this is an unscientific claim.

        i’ve never said that. i think if you want to avoid animal products, then doing so is its own reward. but if you want to decrease animal slaughter, it’s ineffective.

        i suggest that you go where animals are being slaughtered and stop it.

        you can’t prove a counterfactual. but it is a fact that vegans exist, and the chart continues to rise.
