We are privileged to ask Ori Shavit to introduce us to the vegan scene in Israel. She began by sharing with us the historical background of the Israeli cuisine. Ori also shared with us the exciting development of vegan products in Israel. "Even dairy companies and meat companies are joining this revolution. In Israel, you can see that. We have one of the biggest meat companies, they have a whole line of vegan products and they invest profits in cultured meat research." "That is my mission to help people to learn how to cook vegan, vegan dishes simply, happily, tastefully, in their own kitchens."

Here, we’ll meet a special woman, who is a famed journalist, respected food critic, media personality, and strong advocate of the vegan culture, animal liberation, and a green, healthy lifestyle – Ms. Ori Shavit! She has made a tremendous contribution to the vegan movement and reached out to thousands of people worldwide through TEDx Talks. “About eight years ago. In Israel, it was a vegan desert. …one evening we made the whole restaurant go 100% vegan, it was never heard before. Nobody did that, so all the media jumped on it. All these chefs starting to cook vegan food? And that’s how, A vegan revolution in Israel started. It became main-stream like everywhere.”

In many of his speeches, Mr. Wollen’s distinctly points to well-documented facts about the livestock industry’s enormous impact. “I’m sure you guys know that greenhouse gas emissions from livestock exceed those of transport. Forest depletion by the meat industry cost three times as much as the recent global financial crisis.” “So, the problem was caused by us, the problem needs to be solved by us; we don’t have a moment to lose. It's a problem that we all must face, and we must all take responsibility for it. ” “Because at the end, only three things matter: how deeply you loved; how gently you lived; and how gracefully you let go of things that were not meant for you. Meat was not meant for you. ”

Sadha has been a vegetarian since 2012, and she chose to do so, because she didn’t actually enjoy the taste, and she definitely did not appreciate the killing involved. “I quit having red meat when I just saw an animal being sacrificed at a festival, and it just broke my heart. I felt no living being need to go through that amount of fear and pain for me to satisfy my taste buds.” Sadha’s kind acts to animals was recognized and acknowledged by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India. She received PETA’s Hero to Animals Award for rescuing a puppy, who had been hit by a car, and then changing her travel plans, so that she could care for it.

In his efforts to find more spokespersons for the animals, Mr.Wollen often openly invites people to join his cause. He especially believes that it is imperative for people in positions of power to speak out and take action. And once you get off the meat and dairy drug, there is no going back. Your health improves, the way in which you look at life improves, and they never go back to the bad old days. And now of course, everything has changed, everybody is working for the vegan world, and that all animals are free, not just having better conditions, but they are actually free, and we shut down the slaughterhouses. We don’t clean them up, we shut them down.

We will feature Sadaf Mohammed Sayed, a popular vegan Indian actress, better known as Sadha. Besides being an actress, Sadha is an entrepreneur, animal lover/rescuer, and an ethical vegan. Sadha's colorful and productive acting career started rolling after she entered the acting school. "You just do your hard work, whatever comes your way, you consider, like the best out of the lot, you pick that up, do it. Do it with all honesty, with all hard work, and then just leave it to God."

One of the most impressive undertakings of the Kindness Trust is the "Kindness House," which he describes as an "NGO incubator." Now, the most beautiful word ever written at any time in any country in human history came from India, from the Upanishads, 3,000 years ago: Ahimsa - non-violence to any living being. And I choose to define it as: Non-violence in everything we do, say and think, not just in what we do. So, when I'm asked to describe myself, I describe myself as: "Ahimsan."

Born in 1950, Mr. Wollen descended from a distinguished British family that had settled in India for generations. He traversed the highest reaches of financial success and power, yet gave them all up to follow the path of kindness. He is indeed one of the brightest beacons of light in the history of 21st century environmental protection and humanitarianism. “We’re running out of time. We need to focus very, very strongly on the vegan movement, because that is the enchanted key. Without veganism, nothing is going to happen. It is the only way out of this room, and the sooner we wake up to that obvious fact, the better. ”

Opting for a vegan lifestyle nowadays, is now a mainstream movement, and having experienced first-hand the benefits derived from the vegan diet. “Do it. Give yourself a 30-day challenge. You’ll notice that your recovery is so much faster, your workouts, you have so much more energy, you feel so much more alive, and, just give it a chance.”

A major development for Alejandro regarding the spread of the vegan massage is that the visual materials created by Alejandro through HomoVegetus were chosen and incorporated into school textbooks. Very impressive, aren’t they? There was an especially rewarding experience for Alejandro, that occurred during a rural school visit, when a school girl came up to thank Alejandro for revealing to her the existence of an alternative vegan lifestyle, which would otherwise have been impossible if not for the creation of those illustrative materials in the textbooks.

Alejandro is a well-known animal rights activist in Chile, as well as a yoga teacher and vegan writer. Alejandro founded HomoVegetus in 2002, for the purpose of inspiring respect for all animals, to create a better understanding of veganism, and to help transform and elevate the consciousness of people. About ten years ago, Alejandro started to write an extensive list of illustrative books aimed at children and young readers. I’m precisely seeking to reach children, future generations, to show them that this way of living exists. The children’s book can work on the parents as well.

Jo-Anne uses her images to highlight how desensitized we have become to the rightful lives of animals who are imprisoned and exploited for human consumption, amusement, animal testing and other animal industries such as wool and fur. And so I made the “We Animals” book. As humans, we are all animals, and we are all sentient, and deserving of autonomy and respect and care. That we can all use our own skills whatever they maybe, to make the world a better place. That to help people, help animals, help the environment, because everything really is an emergency right now. We’re the ones who are causing the problems and so we need to be the ones enacting solutions.

A Shining World Compassion Award recipient, Jo-Anne McAuthur utilizes her photographic talents to capture a story in every picture that can be understood in all languages and cultures. Her passion of capturing the heartfelt pleas of animals in desperate situations has won her grants and awards, and has helped people awaken from their slumber and realize that the world is not okay as it is. Her images are sourced worldwide, taking us into the true living conditions of animals used in various industries, created by the demands of humans.

We have seen that when people go on a vegan diet, and especially a wholefood plant-based diet, they can improve so many conditions. But what stops them from going vegan? Or what stops them from caring for their bodies? Thank you Nandini Gulati for helping people to understand that the mind, body and heart are all part of our well-being, and that a truly compassionate heart easily embraces veganism. May your “Guilt-Free Vegan” cookbook help countless people embrace a kinder and healthy way of living!

However, young Omari was determined to make the conscious choice to only eat foods that didn’t hurt animals. I am vegan because I have animals. And you see the animals on the farm, why do we harm them and we don’t harm our own pets? So that is why I became vegan. Because if it is not vegan, then you’re just harming our animals. In the same year, Omari started a YouTube channel “The Mari Maker Show” later renamed to “Omari Goes Wild.”

Today’s program will feature an inspiring and loving soul, Romy, from London, United Kingdom, who started her own colorful vegan blog called Romy London-UK. The talented young blogger shows how easy it is to cook tasty vegan food, and also aims to bring about compassionate change in people through leading by example. On her blog she writes, “I believe that balance is the key – and that everything is possible on a vegan diet: whether you are a vegan body builder, simply into all the healthy food or like to stick to the comfort foods that you’ve always known – there’s no missing out!”

Through her popular Plant-Based on a Budget website that has been featured in publications such as Reader's Digest, US News & World Report, and more, Toni has shared how to eat vegan while saving money in the process. I have created it from the beginning. I got to do the design, the photos, the recipes, the meal planning, and it has been in the works for two years. I'm so excited to share it with the world. I included 100 recipes, all of which are 30 minutes to make or under, and $30.00 for the week of meal planning; and it will help people whether they are experienced chefs, or they're just stepping in. I give basics and I also give how to save even more money.

Everybody’s worried, but little is done. What we need now is action, action from the governments to inform people and to reinforce the new life-saving diet. That’s the vegan diet. I hope the governments would please, make it into law to forbid the killing of animals, to forbid any more animal livestock raising. If they are truly the leaders that pledge to protect their people, to improve their country in many aspects, then this is the first step we have to do. Stop the meat industry, stop the fish industry, stop the dairy industry, then our planet will be the way it was and even better.
