About
This site provides an evidence-based, non-hyperbolic informational resource for beginners to veganism as well as those engaging in advocacy, whether on the streets or with friends—begrudgingly or not. Having useful, pertinent, information logically and efficaciously organized, at your fingertips, and in one central location is the goal.
Sections
The site is organized into the following sections, with information in each section cross-linked to information in other sections. The information in each section is further categorized by into animals, ethics, earth, health, and humanity as appropriate.

- Basics
- This section contains articles covering some basic information about veganism and animal rights. The top three articles provide a good starting point for those interested in veganism.
- Objections
- This section provides reasoned responses to common objections, concerns, and questions regarding animal rights and veganism. The responses are organized into talking points.
- Fact Sheets
- Fact Sheets provide support for a variety of assertions that are commonly made in advocating for veganism and animal rights. Each fact sheet consists of one assertion, followed by summarized citations of supporting evidence for that assertion.
- Summaries
- Each entry in this section summaries an important book, video, person, or study, highlighting information that is useful for veganism and animal rights advocacy. Examples:
Foundational Information
The most important entries in each section will be flagged as Foundational. Think of foundational information as things you should know in order to be the most effective advocate for veganism and animal rights.
Information and facts should be used judiciously, and are certainly not all you need to be an effective advocate. But being generally familiar with the knowledge presented in foundational entries can help.
Foundational pages have been copyedited or are flagged to be copyedited by a professional copy editor. Small edits by users to foundational pages only need to be approved by admins, but larger edits are flagged to be copy edited.
