Veganism is the future for humans.
It certainly has its merits and it's actually growing in popularity over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries.
It also has also been shown to have numerous health benefits.
I think that's also why it's become more popular over the last 20 years or so. Although as of 2005 only 0.5-4% of the western world was vegetarian.
Oh wow I would have thought it was more than that.
It might be easy to think more people are vegetarian if you surround yourself with vegetarians in your daily life. Places like India sure do have a lot of vegetarians in reality though.
That is true. Where I live most people thrive on meat though.
Same here, I don't think it's very popular on a country-wide level except in pllaces like India and probably other places with similar religious beliefs regarding vegetarianism.
