Happy World Aquatic Animal Day! 🌊
Fish are incredible! As experts have shown, fish are emotional, intelligent beings—they have memories and form relationships with one another, and some even recognize themselves in a mirror. We can all take a stand for fish in our own lives simply by leaving them off our plates. Click to take action for fish today!
The world’s largest meat company is on track to breaking its rainforest-protection promises—again.
JBS—the world’s largest meat company—promised to address deforestation by committing to cleaning up their beef supply chain in the Amazon region by the end of 2025. But after speaking with ranchers and leaders of ranching unions who represent thousands of farms in Pará and Rondônia, a group of journalists discovered widespread doubt that JBS would achieve their deforestation goals. Beef production is a leading cause of deforestation, as people clear trees to raise cattle. Scientists warn that this pushes the Amazon rainforest close to a tipping point where the forest could change from a carbon sink to a carbon emitter. Click to learn more!

Egg prices have soared once again!
Following this Easter weekend, U.S. egg prices have soared once again, smashing records to hit an astonishing $6.23 per dozen! Soaring costs are mainly due to the killing of more than 166 million birds, mostly chickens, to control the spread of bird flu. 💔🐔 In efforts to stop the spread of avian flu where the illness is suspected, farmers are instructed to kill flocks all at once, something the industry refers to as “depopulation.” These mass on-farm killings are extremely cruel, despite being legal. Every creature, including chickens, deserves compassion and respect, making it the perfect time to embrace a plate free of eggs. By making conscious choices about what we eat, we can make a significant difference in the lives of these sensitive animals.

Why is it cheaper to support this? 💔😔 This is the true cost of cows’ milk.
Choosing plant-based milk instead of cows’ milk should come at no extra charge! We’re calling on Biggby Coffee, Bluestone Lane, and 7 Brew Coffee to do the right thing for animals by dropping the plant-based milk upcharge. Join us at the link in our bio!

By the time you read this post. 😔🐇
By the time you read this post, many of these gentle creatures will have already faced their tragic fate. 💔 Countless rabbits born into our food system are either slaughtered or trapped in the cruel breeding industry until their bodies are spent. Easter season is meant to be a time of gratitude, love, forgiveness, new beginnings, and second chances. Show love for rabbits by sharing this post. It may be too late for these bunnies, but you have the power to help other animals this Easter season by choosing vegan foods and encouraging kindness. 💚
Eating more plant-based oils was linked to a 16% reduction in mortality.
New research published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine found that higher butter consumption was associated with a 15% higher risk of mortality, while eating more plant-based oils was linked to a 16% reduction in mortality. The study looked at 33 years’ worth of dietary data from over 221,000 participants. The evidence is clear—choosing more plant-based foods is better for your body!

The footage shows just how close these 💩 pits are to residential communities.
#FlashbackFriday to when our pilot flew a drone over several mega dairies in Wisconsin, capturing disturbing footage of massive open-air pits of liquified cow feces. 🤢 The footage shows just how close these pits are to residential communities. Not only is this disgusting, but it has alarming health consequences for local residents.

How can we celebrate lambs for Easter but treat them like this?
These scared sheep can’t even eat from the bowl that’s right in front of them. 💔 At most livestock shows around the United States, children are taught to muzzle animals to restrict them from eating or drinking before shows. This is done so the animals maintain the “perfect weight and look” for the judges. They are ultimately sent to slaughter. We must stop supporting a cruel industry where animals are seen as objects and deprived of satisfying the most basic needs by choosing plant-based foods.

Yes, people eat bunnies! 😢
Filled with fear and uncertainty, these innocent rabbits huddle together in a transport crate. Their destination? A slaughterhouse. 💔 Yes, people eat bunnies! 😔 Share with those who need to see this reality. You can help rabbits trapped in our food system by choosing plant-based foods.
