Today’s video:

#Switzerland has just introduced new animal welfare labelling laws that will force companies to write on packaging if certain farming practices have been inflicted on animals. However, while this has been met with huge amounts of praise online, including from #vegans, is there more to this story that we might be missing?

In today’s episode of #TheDisclosurePodcast, I discuss my thoughts around the new labelling laws, highlighting what is positive about them, while also explaining why I think we should be more cautious about how we are viewing them.

Is Horse Riding Cruel? Vegan? (Rethinking The Debate That Just Won’t Die)

Is horse riding cruel? Do horses like to be ridden? Can vegans ride horses? The answers may surprise you! The ethics of horse riding remains an extremely controversial and divisive topic. This video covers arguments for and against horse riding, the ongoing debates between horse riding schools and methods, whether horse riding hurts horses, the harm of horse riding tack, whether horse riding is vegan, and more. It goes beyond the questions of “is horse riding cruel” and “is horse riding vegan” for a deeper exploration of the ethics of horse use.

Bite Size Vegan aims to serve as an “entry point” for non-vegans to explore veganism in an approachable, non-threatening environment—distilling down complex concepts into accessible formats while providing cited sources for total transparency.

By taking on the ample time requirements of researching the myriad of issues inherent within & surrounding veganism, as well as sorting through the ever-growing mountains of information, Emily Moran Barwick aims to increase both the accessibility of veganism for non-vegans, & the efficiency & effectiveness of current vegans’ activism.
