Heads up vegan book clubs! There’s about to be a new cool kid on the block- ready to spark fascinating discussions and provoke insightful thought. English Animal Rights and Environmental activist Ed Winters AKA Earthling Ed is gearing up to release his debut book titled “This Is Vegan Propaganda & Other Lies the Meat Industry Tells You.”
Earthling Ed is well-known for his poised, logical arguments with non-vegans, skeptics, and anti-vegans, which the public can view on his YouTube channel. As a result of these plethora of interactions, and conversations with leading experts, Ed was determined to relay this crucial knowledge to the community.
“I wanted to write a book that would empower vegans and that would ultimately make you feel more confident talking about veganism with the non-vegans in your life. After finishing this book, you’ll know in detail the irrefutable arguments for #veganism and also have an in-depth understanding of the cultural, social, and psychological drivers that influence our behaviours,” he states in his heartfelt social media post.
In his statement to Plant Based News, Winters says, “My aim is for the book to give readers the knowledge to understand veganism better, the arguments used against it – and how to respond to them. I wrote This Is Vegan Propaganda to create a book about veganism that is important for everyone to read.”
The book- published by Penguin Random House, will delve into the ethical arguments that warrant a vegan lifestyle, the environmental crises that necessitate a shift to a vegan world, health, and how our relationship with other earthlings can make or break our species’ existence on our humble planet.
This is Vegan Propaganda has already received accolades from experts, and celebrities alike- from Harvard University lecturer Dr. Sparsha Saha to vegan musician Moby. Harry Potter star Evanna Lynch enthuses that this book should be the first place to go if one is “looking to learn about veganism from a source that is grounded, truthful and thoroughly knowledgeable.” Best-selling author Matt Haig joins the fan club and touts that this book is “Everything you wanted to know about veganism but were afraid to ask.”
These pages of wisdom will hit the shelves on January 6, 2022, and are currently available for pre-order.
