Yeah, you’re right it’s a different thing to doing it in cities, cooking is important. In my experience, I have lots of vegan rural friends however that’s due to my social circle and isn’t representive. In the uk apparently we are on 4.7% vegan now (1567% increase in 10 years) its become noticeably more over the last few years but probably not to the same level as cities.

vegan here who grew up on farms. Just because you don’t know them doesn’t mean they aren’t common.

it’s pretty crazy that no one in this thread has mentioned that going vegan would have a larger impact.

Fuck your Honda civic ;)
