of 1,000 15- to 24-year-olds, vegetari-
anism among young people is becom-
ing more popular in recent decades.
One mainstream example is Russell
Lissack, guitarist for Bloc Party, an
English indie rock band. Recently inter-
viewed about his reasons for choosing
a vegetarian lifestyle, he commented,
“I became vegetarian four years ago. It
was a combination of reading Fast Food
Nation, realizing what actually goes on
in the world, and a health issue.”
Growth of the vegetarian move-
ment has led to the development of
world-outreach organizations, such as
the Vegetarian Society, which support
members’ choices by setting standards
for what is truly vegetarian, raising the
profile of vegetarian issues, and help-
ing people understand the reasons for
choosing a vegetarian way of life. The
Vegan Society, with its aim of exclud-
ing all animal products from a diet,
goes further than the Vegetarian Soci-
ety, which accepts the use of eggs and
dairy.
“Vegetarianism is not only a
healthy and ethically sound diet, it is a
major step to help reduce greenhouse
gases, conserve water and conserve
land,” says Annette Pinner, chief execu-
tive of the Vegetarian Society, based in
England. “With climate change making
headlines and many people unsure of
what they can do to help, giving up
meat and cutting back on dairy is a
positive choice for you, for the animals
and for the world we all share.”
