If I can help just one person to go Vegan,
and they can help just one person,
we've already changed the world
Your activism is powerful
We are often told that one person cannot make a difference
but when we look at leaders throughout time, it's clear that if you want something to change in the world
and you devote your life to it,
then it will happen
All it takes is imagination and creativity
And the passion to make the change you want to see a reality
And ignorance can't last forever
But we must start taking responsibility for the change we wan't to see
Start looking at ourselves and realise that it doesn't have to be this way
Almost a billion people in the world don't have enough food or clean water
But we have the choice everyday to save over a 1,100 gallons of water,
45 pounds of grain,
30 square feet of forested land,
20 pounds of Co2
and one animal's life
Every single day
If you help just one person a week to go Vegan starting today,
then in a year you'd have helped save over 11 million gallons of water,
450 000 pounds of grain,
300 000 square feet of forested land,
200 000 pounds of cO2
and 10 000 animals' lives
It's not an impossible goal
Many activists have helped hundreds, even thousands of people to make the connection
And don't forget that those thousands have the power to help thousands more
But we can't just be passive Vegans
We need to be activists
We need more people to devote their lives to this
Use their unique skills, ideas and experiences to help others around them to wake up
We have to speak up for the animals
For the planet that's dying
Because if we don't, who will?
It is hard to comprehend that it took more than 400 years to abolish human slavery
But remember that this was before the age of social media
The internet gives us the power to share a message with people from all over the world
It's a tool that when used effectively, it can expose injustices that were previously hidden and raise awareness for any issue that we choose to focus on
Living at this time you have an amazing opportunity to do something
The ripples we make are infinite
Never underestimate the difference you can make through your simple actions
Be a part of the Vegan revolution
Believe the world can change
Be the change
