Great film. Thanks for taking the time, love and care to create it. I’ve only been Vegan 1 year, but the obvious change, even in supermarket and restaurant options is massive. 🌱🌱🌱🌱.
Well done Dan for doing what's right. The animal food industries are rife with the most sickening of cruelty and are also destroying the planet more than any other industry. Don't listen to these idiots who say its unhealthy just because they haven't got the heart or will to follow their morals and do what everyone knows is right.. When done properly it's the healthiest life style there is. . I've been vegan 5 years and am the fittest, strongest and mentally sharpest I've ever been and I work in the martial arts/fitness industry. . Stick with it. . :-)
@@ElinWinblad They've been spraying for over a decade now. Their official announcement is because too many are questioning the "chemtrails". Combined with fluoride, pesticide & vaccines. We have toxic air, water, food & injections. So called silent weapons in their so called quiet war being waged upon humanity. Veganism is false dietary advice & is another one of their silent weapons.
@@davidday8692 veganism is not a diet. It's about not exploiting animals unnecessarily in the modern society where there are plenty of other options. It's a grassroots movement.
Was a vegetarian for 5-6 years and two weeks ago started a 1 month vegan challenge where I got into all these videos. My decision is clear: I'm going to stay vegan🌱
Nothing tastes as good as healthy feels!! Plant powered for the last 5months, 3weeks fro my 50th and looking forward to a bright future thanks to the best life decision I have ever made!1 PLANT POWERED!!
Yesssss, here's to hoping that Veganism spreads everywhere! I'm doing my small part by opening the first vegan online store in Nairobi, Kenya. #vegankenya
Excellent film. My family are all vegan and it’s uplifting to know how much it’s taking off. Both my daughters are activists, and I’m well proud of them.
yes - I was the first to succumb 30 years ago - since then literally my whole immediate family are Vegan - just my eldest sister Kathy to fall - both sons are Vegan warriors - even my ex wife has changed - well done -
I'm in Ireland, RURAL Ireland at that. 5 yrs ago I had to order my vegan cheese from UK and forget about finding plant milk choices outside Dublin really. Now, I can go to my local small shop and get vegan spread and plant milks and my local supermarket has vegan cheese and yogurt etc. Life is good, vegan life is FANTASTIC GO VEGAN !
Lesley Tate I bought a great book called Artisan Cheeses by Miyoko Schinner (who was interviewed in this film). The cheeses are fab and not too difficult to make :D
There should be sufficient vegan foods in Ireland, whiskey and potatoes are vegan, I've seen an Irish vegan in Adelaide Australia. The meat industries want you to feel safe that they're killing cows, it often doesn't work, but lab grown meat is wrong, it does the taking of cells and blood from an animal, stop that! You vegans know that morals are not a thing to be toyed with.
I've been a vegetarian since I was 9, because I just didn't want to hurt the animals, I'm 16 now and I have been a vegan since about 8/9 months, best choice of my life.
@124 Spider no worries your insects will have plenty more space to thrive without people stepping on them as soon as no more slave-animals are bred into life 😉
@124 Spider I'm vegan but I do eat insects, there are some vegans/vegetarians who eat insects. They're extremely environmentally friendly. Fungi technically arent plants either, but they dont feel pain so eating them is fine.
I cried throughout the whole film. From happiness and from sadness. I've been vegan for almost 8 years and every year I watch the end of the year film, 8 years ago I wouldn't think this plant based lifestyle would go so far. I'm so happy for people waking up and make changes, but yet so sad other people still close eyes to this cruel information, making them selves sick, the animals suffer and the disappointing the Earth they walk on. Bless the change.
Talk about the department of sensitivity for what you believe in! Why are these things too sentimental for words? It's not rational! It's emotional and irrational! Study solipsism, does an animal have feelings, or is it that you're just doing harm to the animals? If a witch says "if it does no harm, do as thou will", it literally makes it necessary to stop killing animals for meat. :)
Your diet is unhealthy and a joke and vegans get sick as their muscles waste away. The Carnivore and Keto lifestyles blow all these vegan soyboys away!
I’ve been vegan for almost 10 months now, some days are hard for me as I want to resort back to my old diet because of my family, some friends, co workers, etc judging me and well missing my moms food..but seeing this video gives me hope and for the rest of my life I will try my best to remain vegan for the animals although I’m not perfect but to me it’s about the effort 💚
Wise Owl Intuitive Services thank you ☺️ that means a lot to hear, I’m trying my best and unfortunately I know a lot more “non vegans” than vegans hopefully I can make more vegan friends down the line
@@Justdestini94 I am curious, what do you mean about your friends etc. judging you and you being worried about that? Having empathy for animals and eating a healthy diet is bad in your peer group or what?
@@Justdestini94 keep on pushing! it is hard at times. I'm just at 11 months in with my husband at over a year, his health improved so Hugh like from two weeks at a time every 2 months trips to the hospital to not one single visit since he changed his diet and I'm now 7 months pregnant after being told for years I will never have kids after a miscarriage. Its is hard especially for me being a Georgia girl, and the only one in my family doing a plant base diet. Just keep reminding yourself that you are not along and even when it gets hard, your health and change is worth it.
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services it is, I'm sorry for your loss, but as you said it says so much for being vegan/plant base. I just wonder how many woman have been told they can't have kids other then being told just to switch their diet for a year and a half and see if that works. I'm so glad my hubby and I made the change
Grow.Glow. Flow Just give in. You know you want some chicken nuggets. Nobody likes vegans you're not making a change anyway. Eat a normal healthy human diet. Eat neat
I want just want to say how proud I am of each and everyone of you for becoming vegan. We achieved so much in 2018. Let's make this year even better than the last!
So when i went vegan, I did it out on a whim. I just wanted to see if I could do it. About 9 months later, I am in the best shape of my life(lost 35 pounds of fat), and will never go back. Side note I did it in Alabama one of the most meat consumer places in the U.S.
You have made the best decision of your young life I am so proud of the young today they are so well informed and open to all the information available to them.
I showed this to my Mom just so she could understand my reasons for wanting to go vegan. Now she is going vegan with me! And Dad has cut way back on animal products. Thank you so much! ❤️
2018 was such a huge win for animals. Especially for circus animals and animals skinned alive for fur. Thank you Plant Based News for piecing this video together! ♥️
porquilho I’ve been using an app to record my nutritional intake. I’ve never had such a nutritionally complete diet, feel great! Literally not had a spot this year, it’s mental.
John Paruch, focus on the positive things beginning with your own personal health. Put your energy in to fine tuning your diet as too many consume meat and dairy 'substitutes' mindless of the harmful mystery ingredients listed on their labels. Why replace one harmful thing with another? Remember, the best way to teach is by example. If you were the only vegan someone knew, what would be their impression? We want to make the World a more peaceful place so don't allow anyone to steal your peace.💚
Awesome! I am a plant based cardiologist and LOVE spreading this message. I’m on a mission to end Heart Disease with plants! I plan to make a video soon on how to balance a plant based diet, but first I am finishing a series on heart disease prevention/reversal. Let’s keep spreading the word. Each person here has the power to save the lives of not only people by educating them about the health benefits of plant based diets...but the animals as well of course! Let’s BE THE CHANGE!
Watching this at 2:00am and literally cheering and clapping from my bedroom lol hope I don’t wake up the house! Thanks so much for all your work making this!
Watching this while eating a juicy steak! Don't worry I said thank you to the cow for its nourishment! How immoral of me 😂😂😂 Eggs for breakfast, free range of course!
@@gazwilliams9488 I get that you're joking dude, nothing wrong with that but do you ever think about what you're contributing towards when you buy animal products? I understand you probably see this whole animal activist/ vegan lifestyle a bit pushy, cult-like or basically any other stereotypical terms you've heard....but do you understand why people are catching onto this movement?
@@theparadiddlydoo2771 people are being brainwashed into it, the farming industry isn't like how these people describe it. There is bad farmers out there and factory farming is cruel, I detest it. And I will support good farmers if poss. Most of the farms by me are free range and no one would object to animals living like that. Slaughter houses can be savage if you're not desensitized to seeing animals killed, we've all got to go sometime and most peoples deaths are far more painful than that! What I object to is numptys like Joey notverystrong exploiting the whole movement, and making a living out of other peoples emotions! He comes across as holier than thou but he isn't a good person deep down! You have the choice to live how you want, I think its only fair to let others live how they want!
Wise Owl Intuitive Services Arebt vegans like less than 1% of the population and constantly ridiculed by everyone? This is why lol you's are delusional
its not going much further than this, the vast majority still dont give a shit about veganism and in fact are quite put off by radicals stealing livestock and trespassing on farmers property
Why can't people have the sense to eat wisely? If you continue to eat potato chips, crisps, vegan cake, and vegan doughnuts, you're going to clog your system, is this what a wise man eats? Try a liquid diet instead, it's risk-free vegan and it's fat-free!
Watching videos like this gives me hope when I live constantly surrounded by negative people that do not support the movement and make me lose faith in humanity. Thank you for making it.
Made the change to vegan around this time last year after watching this channel. Thanks so much for all of the work you guys do! I’m so excited for what’s to come for 2019!
Wonderful, thank you.. Everywhere I go in Helena, Montana I am speaking about veganism. Yesterday I spoke to a Representative of Safeway and educated her on Veganism. I was amazed to note a deplorable lack of vegan products on the shelves. The representative looked at me like she had never even heard the word. Bit by bit, slowly but surely we will get there.
My boss who's a pescatarian told me the watch The Game Changer in netflix,then i came across WHAT THE HEALTH the same day. I've been a meat and dairy lover all my life before seeing those documentaries. That was 6 days ago,and been vegan for 6 days now. I tried hard to make my friends and families watch the same shows, sad i couldn't make them watch it.Those shows are such an eye opener for me.Its only been less than a week but i feel the difference in my life already.Better sleep and full of energy even my wife is happy i became vegan because shes a pescatarian too. She said someday she will convert to vegan eventually.All i can say is its so sad about our Agencies here in the US, AHA, ADA,ACA all corrupt misleading people about right nutrition because its all about the $$$$$$ for these soulless ASSOCIATIONS. To all the VEGANS out there Thank you and lets all keep trying saving lives from disease and lies about plant food.
@@davidday8692 really? So how do you explain my hair growing thicker and faster, teeth getting whiter and nutrient intake increasing since going plant based over a year ago??
I love these (what I call yearly vegan reviews) as I find them encouraging for times when as a vegan you're concerned with the small dent veganism is making it actually shows a WAY BIGGER picture veganism is making on the whole world, it's a huge impact. It also acts as education for those that are new vegans or are just plain curious. As a life long vegan I'm so bloody proud.
Nicely done! I was Vegetarian for 16 years and finally educated myself on veganism. I’m proud to say I’ve been vegan for a month and never going back. It’s weird bc as I read many books, watched TH-cam and etc. I feel like the “curtain” was lifted and I was able to make an educated and ethical decision on how I want to live my life. #ProudBabyVegan
This film made me cry out of joy and being so completely touched by how far veganism has gone!! I felt like a mom seeing her child finally graduate uni and grown into a beautiful adult...!! 😭😭😭😭
When the lady said "We will live in a completely different world in 5 years" I almost cried because I've been vegan 5 years and so much has changed since then, but so much MORE will change, because a revolution like this will be exponential.
haha. same. plus, english-speaking countries are much more advanced on veganism than other countries like France or Belgium where i live. I'd say we're about 5 years back compared to the USA. so, I hope we'll keep rising like vegans have in the US.
@@pxxsa4043 never say never. most vegans though themselves addicted to animal products and would never have though to quit before they did. now, I'd never go back, the though of it makes me sick to my stomach. I hope you'll allow yourself grow and go past your addiction of killing animals. there are so many ways to enjoy forest and nature other than by walking aorund with a riffle ;)
I actually cried listening to them talk about how the world IS changing. I've only been vegan for a year and a half & I felt so proud & hopeful watching this.
Be careful. My mom almost died from going vegan. It’s going to cost you a lot of money and health. Coincidence that eggs and liver have every nutrient that humans need? I think not. Plants are literally poison.
The future is without doubt vegan and we're slowly seeing it happen. Great work raising awareness with this film. Lots of the comments are truly heart warming. 💚✌
Spectacular work to everyone involved! I've seen all of the "Vegan 201*" videos, and I can see the yearly improvement in style and skill. Thanks for changing the world. ❤️
wymasa1 makes no sense since I’m actually on the lookout for raw milk which government banned in my state so I won’t be getting the benefits of that anytime soon.
Dairy consumption may be decreasing and plant based milks are becoming very popular but dairy still has plenty of years left, make no mistake about it.
Why is it that whenever I hear Jane Goodall speak I find myself wanting to cry? What she says is just so emotional, so profound, loving and beautiful. Great video! Thank you for reminding me that this is a growing movement and to make me feel that we might turn this around before we destroy the planet!
Awesome and uplifting video! Sometimes as vegans we feel as though everyone is against veganism, this video reminds us of the truth - the world is changing for the better!
3babies 1arm Everyone agrees vegans are annoying and pushy. At best you're a good looking girl vegan and people are willing to deal with you but that's it.
@@DavidAthy annoying? For wanting people to be kind to and not harm animals? How strange if you to think that's annoying! By the same token, I Know a few (heaps!) Of meat eaters who are annoying... Just because you have a specific lifestyle and you're annoying, doesn't mean all the people in that lifestyle are the same.
I agree. Could never even try sth that tastes too much like meat. But I think beyond burger and similar are an important step to changing the habits of those who say 'but I love the taste of meat'. It's only the first step, but everyone has to start somewhere
@porquilho That's usually because people don't know what they are suppose to eat on a vegan diet. So they get sick, have headaches and don't get enough nutrients. Let's not forget ppl detox too which can make them feel tired. That's how I was until I saw a whole foods/plant based nutritionist. Just got my blood/lab tests results from my doctor and I'm as healthy as a horse. Been vegan for almost a year now. :)
@porquilho I'm living it though. It is easier than I thought and it is cheaper. It is a change. I went from eating steak & hashbrown for breakfast to oatmeals & smoothies. :)
To me that clearly shows that the filmmakers have no clue what they're doing. Just editing together some random stuff is not brilliant at all. Here is another clip from the guy you love to have in your "documentary" th-cam.com/video/1BUL78hbkLA/w-d-xo.html
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services You're welcome! And yes, he is talking facts-in both clips. But he is not bashing vegans in the one clip and he is not promoting veganism in the other. Just wanna point out that editing together some random stuff to make your point of view look good is poor filmmaking.
I’ve been struggling for years turns out I’m intolerant of dairy and eggs turns out lots of us are. It cost a lot of money $300 for the blood test. Best money I ever spent. Now moving into a vegan diet.
Congratulations on the release of the film! Always looking forward to it. Of course, as always, sharing it! Here in Indonesia, the movement is growing too. More vegan/vegetarian options in cafes, daily catering programmes and more. 2019 is gonna get grand-er whoop!
I feel like I was manipulated by the animal industries and our „traditions“ all these years in which I consumed animal products. Killing animals seemed to be so normal to me because I wasn’t taught to think differently until this point of my life. Thank you for opening my eyes and the eyes of many other people. Thank you for revealing the truth. The future is vegan 🌱💪
I am plant-based and I disagree the anger comes from Vegans pushing it down peoples throats ( in the past PETA and the rest ) but now it's being done with proof and not quilt. It's the proof that opened my eyes not the guilt. Flims like Forks over knives and Pure Plant Nation etc. That's how it was for me. Plant power. Have a great day.
Or do it for other humans (that are technically animals too). Just wanted to point out that world hunger is caused to some degree by animal agriculture. And the same is true for world thirst. And then there is the humanitarian catastrophe around global warning.
@@pxxsa4043 Your way of living violates the golden rule (common to all religions), humanitarian standards, utilitarian ethics, AND Kant's categorical imperative. So it is immoral, no matter which moral system you choose. And that hunted meat is healthier than processed meat is not even sure. Hunted animals often live much longer than those raised in a factory farm. So they have much more time to accumulate environmental poisons over time. What they surely do because there is no way around that. Sure they don't get antibiotics. But I would actually prefer antibiotics over a higher concentration of environmental poisons any day. Because my body can handle antibiotics. But most environmental poisons are accumulated in my body as well, and it is hard to get rid of those.
@@pxxsa4043 Why it makes sense to talk about a will to live in animals, it makes no sense to say the same about plants. So the golden rule does not apply to our behavior toward those living things, which do not have a will to live and can't feel pain. And there are actually parts of many plants that the plant produces to be eaten by animals. Ever heard of fruits? Furthermore, if you eat animals you actually do more harm to plants than any vegan. Because those animals are fed with plants. Tons of tons of plants. "Also would that golden rule apply if it was a hungry lion in a cave and you were in it." I'm not stupid enough to get into this situation, so this point is irrelevant. But self-defense is generally acceptable. "This is a dog eat dog world and we are basically animals." It actually isn't any more for humans. We made laws and enforce them to make sure this isn't true anymore. We are still animals, but our animal ancestors never ate this much meat, and since what you tried there is the naturalistic fallacy it doesn't matter anyway. But you should really think twice before you build your worldview on fallacies. Generally no great idea. "Most if not all religions follow the belief that animals are meant to be eaten." Actually, correctly translated, the Abrahamic religions forbid the consumption of meat. The old testament states that we have dominion about the animals. But correctly translated it is the dominion a wise king has over his people. Ever heard of a wise king who eats his people? And then the bible goes on to tell you to eat fruits and seats and stuff... but meat isn't on the list. Buddhistic monks are mostly vegetarian due to their religious beliefs. Jains never harm animals. And then there are all those vegetarians and vegans in India which draw their inspiration for this lifestyle from their religions as well. So, as far as I see it, if people would be really religious and understand their religions, they would be vegetarians at least. But we can agree that many people ignore their religions to the extend that they can eat meat, dairy and fish. "The golden rule does not apply to animals because they dont have the mental capacity that a human does." That's not correct. "Japan is the healthiest nation that eats a lot of unprocessed food involving meat." Japan was the healthiest nation because they ate very little meat and little fish. The tradition Okinawa diet was 95%+ plants. "... you are right but it wont kill you." At least not on the spot. The problem with high meat diet isn't that you drop dead in the very moment. You can actually feel pretty great eating tons of meat (although I never felt as great as on a whole food plant based diet). They will kill you in the long run. And that's what people don't get. You can not say "I like this diet and don't feel bad, so it does not harm me". The only way to see the long term effects is to lock at the scientific consensus. And the result is: Meat is unhealthy. "Veganism is a cult that worships animals as gods" That's bullshit. We just take their pain, suffering, and wellbeing into consideration. If you think that it needs worship to do that you are no nice person.
I've been a vegetarian for 4 years now, and two weeks ago, I went full vegan! I'm super excited that I finally made that step and know that I am doing the right thing.
What a super film! WOw! I'm a newbie vegan and watching this gives me such incredible hope for our future, the future of the planet and the future of our dear animals.
We need more vegan films in foreign languages. Few have dubs. Most of the time I have to pause and help explain whats going on in the film or pause so my mom reads the subtitles. Just putting this out there. Otherwise wonderful film
Imagine many decades from now, they'll be saying, "Can you believe that our ancestors used to eat animals?" and all the healthy children of the world will turn up their noses in disgust and confusion. My only regret in this lifestyle is not doing it sooner. I'm sorry for all the times I called vegans protein deficient. I'm sorry for reading the books I was given on the subject too late. I'm sorry I didn't wake up until last year...but I'm glad I did...and I hope more people follow in that path. Learning on your own really helps--doing your own research on these subjects from your own curiosity. We just need to spark people by asking a few necessary questions to have them question their own judgements. Easier said than done, but this is not a fad. This is not a short-term "diet". This is a lifestyle...and one worth living. Save the planet, save the animals, and save your own lives. #GOvegan 💚
Loved seeing so many familiar faces of game changes that we are proud to know and follow!!! PBN, you are so awesome. Thank you for always sharing so much fantastic info!!! ❤️🌱❤️
Thank you to all directly involved in this production - these films have advanced the consciousness of VEGANISM worldwide by YEARS - by leaps and bounds - even in SOUTH AFRICA we are changing - Cape Town fast - Johannesburg fast - come on Pretoria - still not one Vegan only restaurant in Pretoria - when I think back on all the hurt and suffering I caused by my daily choice of what I consumed I feel a great shame and regret that I did'nt change sooner - it was fishing that started me slowly realising that it can't be right to pull a fish out of its environment with a sharp hook that you lodge into the throat or mouth of your victim - just imagine for a second how that MUST feel - then you toss it into the back of the boat and suffocate it - and then we call it SPORT - being right there as that violence was meted out did change me - stopped fishing at 12 - then took myself off to an abbatoir to watch proceedings - also changes you - seeing the EXPLOSIVE GROWTH over the last 5 years it is starting to look likely that we will be virtually completely VEGAN in 15 to 20 years - a carbon TAX on meat and Parliaments around the world getting more and more VEGANS so that laws will be crafted by VEGAN consciousness very soon - lets just call it a sweet spot - but with increasing ACTIVISM
I am currently not vegan, trying to stay vegetarian. Just because of excuses and tradition. I really believe in the idea behind Vegan, just I have to find my way through it. Powerful movie
Milen Nedkov watch Earthlings. watch without distractions, alone, phone off in a quiet setting. you'll find it very easy to never eat meat again. good luck 🍃💚🍃
Am a 20 year old vegan (since feb 2017) living in Kenya, Africa. It's really hard being vegan here,especially during the holiday season. I try sharing documentaries like this to my friends and family but they honestly don't bother. They claim that issues like these mostly affect the western countries. Healthy food like fruits and vegetables are relatively cheap here but people just love meat. I've also noticed an increase in fast foods from the west like KFC, Chicken inn, etc being marketed in my country. Sad ik.
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services Thank you so much for the encouragement. I will stay strong because i love animals, they don't deserve to be mistreated. 🥗
@@mello.b3373 Do you realize what meat is: the flesh of tortured animal who suffered a horrific life? A moral life is a life of not causing harm and suffering to others. Animals feel pain just like you do. Humans can be the cruelest and most ignorant and selfish beings on the planet. Don't be one of those! Live compassionately, live vegan!
Dominique Wiedeck welcome new vegan. Stay informed by reading lots of great vegan educational books and watch lots of great vegan cooking shows on TH-cam, the more informed you get the better your success on this lifestyle will be :-)

The meat industries want you to feel safe that they're killing cows, it often doesn't work, but lab grown meat is wrong, it does the taking of cells and blood from an animal, stop that! You vegans know that morals are not a thing to be toyed with.
I got almost only negative opinions on me going vegan as a teenager but I have never felt better. Love those inspiring documentaries.
I've been a vegetarian since I was 9, because I just didn't want to hurt the animals, I'm 16 now and I have been a vegan since about 8/9 months, best choice of my life.
Good choice. Wish I did it earlier and I would have saved hundreds on acne treatment from the dairy.
Bravo! I wish I had switched back then...
@124 Spider no worries your insects will have plenty more space to thrive without people stepping on them as soon as no more slave-animals are bred into life 😉
@124 Spider I'm vegan but I do eat insects, there are some vegans/vegetarians who eat insects. They're extremely environmentally friendly.
Fungi technically arent plants either, but they dont feel pain so eating them is fine.
I cried throughout the whole film. From happiness and from sadness. I've been vegan for almost 8 years and every year I watch the end of the year film, 8 years ago I wouldn't think this plant based lifestyle would go so far. I'm so happy for people waking up and make changes, but yet so sad other people still close eyes to this cruel information, making them selves sick, the animals suffer and the disappointing the Earth they walk on. Bless the change.
Bless you!
Talk about the department of sensitivity for what you believe in! Why are these things too sentimental for words? It's not rational! It's emotional and irrational! Study solipsism, does an animal have feelings, or is it that you're just doing harm to the animals? If a witch says "if it does no harm, do as thou will", it literally makes it necessary to stop killing animals for meat. :)
Asila get help, that doesn‘t sound healthy.
Your diet is unhealthy and a joke and vegans get sick as their muscles waste away. The Carnivore and Keto lifestyles blow all these vegan soyboys away!
I’ve been vegan for almost 10 months now, some days are hard for me as I want to resort back to my old diet because of my family, some friends, co workers, etc judging me and well missing my moms food..but seeing this video gives me hope and for the rest of my life I will try my best to remain vegan for the animals although I’m not perfect but to me it’s about the effort 💚
Wise Owl Intuitive Services thank you ☺️ that means a lot to hear, I’m trying my best and unfortunately I know a lot more “non vegans” than vegans hopefully I can make more vegan friends down the line
@@Justdestini94 I am curious, what do you mean about your friends etc. judging you and you being worried about that? Having empathy for animals and eating a healthy diet is bad in your peer group or what?
@@Justdestini94 keep on pushing! it is hard at times. I'm just at 11 months in with my husband at over a year, his health improved so Hugh like from two weeks at a time every 2 months trips to the hospital to not one single visit since he changed his diet and I'm now 7 months pregnant after being told for years I will never have kids after a miscarriage. Its is hard especially for me being a Georgia girl, and the only one in my family doing a plant base diet. Just keep reminding yourself that you are not along and even when it gets hard, your health and change is worth it.
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services it is, I'm sorry for your loss, but as you said it says so much for being vegan/plant base. I just wonder how many woman have been told they can't have kids other then being told just to switch their diet for a year and a half and see if that works. I'm so glad my hubby and I made the change
Grow.Glow. Flow Just give in. You know you want some chicken nuggets. Nobody likes vegans you're not making a change anyway. Eat a normal healthy human diet. Eat neat
This makes me feel hopeful. Thank you for putting this together 💚
I want just want to say how proud I am of each and everyone of you for becoming vegan. We achieved so much in 2018. Let's make this year even better than the last!
me gone Veg 2023 😩
I will eternally regret
not going sooner!!
So when i went vegan, I did it out on a whim. I just wanted to see if I could do it. About 9 months later, I am in the best shape of my life(lost 35 pounds of fat), and will never go back.
Side note I did it in Alabama one of the most meat consumer places in the U.S.
Adrian Ellis well done Adrian! Keep it going :D
You have made the best decision of your young life I am so proud of the young today they are so well informed and open to all the information available to them.
I just became vegan 3 days ago!
MGTOW Lithuania/Lietuva thanks! I will!
Welcome.The planet is thankful Dont give up. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Congrats Sam A. Animals thank you!
lots of support! enjoy the ride
Can you hear that? It's the sound of millions of vegans cheering on you 😊🎉🙌
vegan for life!
I've been vegan for 4 years. I'll never go back.
shout out to all the people who went vegan on 2018 and 2019!
This is my year to go all the way
Great job! I have never been more excited about the future
All vegans have one future and I am really sorry to disappoint you but it ain't bright
I was bawling from start to finish. What a magnificent film!!! Bravo! 👏👏👏You guys did an amazing job 💚💚💚 Thank you so much. 🤗
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services :)
I showed this to my Mom just so she could understand my reasons for wanting to go vegan. Now she is going vegan with me! And Dad has cut way back on animal products. Thank you so much! ❤️
The tide is turning... Thank you so much for putting this together. You have reinvigorated my commitment 🙏🏻
2018 was such a huge win for animals. Especially for circus animals and animals skinned alive for fur. Thank you Plant Based News for piecing this video together! ♥️
I’ve decided I’m going vegan
Good for you! I went vegan in 2018 about 7 months ago now... best decision i ever made in my life... !
Yesssss do it
5 years for me and the best thing I ever did 🌱
Good on you man! Welcome to the cool side of the pillow
porquilho I’ve been using an app to record my nutritional intake. I’ve never had such a nutritionally complete diet, feel great! Literally not had a spot this year, it’s mental.
Don’t give up pls you can do it!
love it !!! vegan for 20 years here in nyc
Congratulations on your 20 year Veganniversary Antonio, and thank you for being Vegan!!
Whenever the non vegan world gets me down this series gives me hope. Thank you for doing everything you do
John Paruch, focus on the positive things beginning with your own personal health. Put your energy in to fine tuning your diet as too many consume meat and dairy 'substitutes' mindless of the harmful mystery ingredients listed on their labels. Why replace one harmful thing with another? Remember, the best way to teach is by example. If you were the only vegan someone knew, what would be their impression? We want to make the World a more peaceful place so don't allow anyone to steal your peace.💚
Carolyn Brown I needed to hear this. Thank you.
Awesome! I am a plant based cardiologist and LOVE spreading this message. I’m on a mission to end Heart Disease with plants! I plan to make a video soon on how to balance a plant based diet, but first I am finishing a series on heart disease prevention/reversal. Let’s keep spreading the word. Each person here has the power to save the lives of not only people by educating them about the health benefits of plant based diets...but the animals as well of course! Let’s BE THE CHANGE!
Good job doc!
That’s the way for optimal health and healing.
Btw I’m DMD myself
Watching this at 2:00am and literally cheering and clapping from my bedroom lol hope I don’t wake up the house!
Thanks so much for all your work making this!
Hey Joey, thanks for your activism and Cheers from Germany! Plz keep up your work. Vegan since August 2015 =)
Love you
Watching this while eating a juicy steak! Don't worry I said thank you to the cow for its nourishment! How immoral of me 😂😂😂 Eggs for breakfast, free range of course!
@@gazwilliams9488 I get that you're joking dude, nothing wrong with that but do you ever think about what you're contributing towards when you buy animal products? I understand you probably see this whole animal activist/ vegan lifestyle a bit pushy, cult-like or basically any other stereotypical terms you've heard....but do you understand why people are catching onto this movement?
@@theparadiddlydoo2771 people are being brainwashed into it, the farming industry isn't like how these people describe it. There is bad farmers out there and factory farming is cruel, I detest it. And I will support good farmers if poss. Most of the farms by me are free range and no one would object to animals living like that. Slaughter houses can be savage if you're not desensitized to seeing animals killed, we've all got to go sometime and most peoples deaths are far more painful than that! What I object to is numptys like Joey notverystrong exploiting the whole movement, and making a living out of other peoples emotions! He comes across as holier than thou but he isn't a good person deep down! You have the choice to live how you want, I think its only fair to let others live how they want!
I made the switch from vegetarian to vegan this year. Easily the best decision, and best thing I’ve ever done.
I hope you realize how you've been deceived before you suffer any permanent damage.
Wise Owl Intuitive Services Arebt vegans like less than 1% of the population and constantly ridiculed by everyone? This is why lol you's are delusional
The vegan movement is already unstoppable.
its not going much further than this, the vast majority still dont give a shit about veganism and in fact are quite put off by radicals stealing livestock and trespassing on farmers property
FAM! Watch "LiveKindlyVegan" on TH-cam! They give weekly news on veganism growth. We've come so far since this video came out
Why can't people have the sense to eat wisely? If you continue to eat potato chips, crisps, vegan cake, and vegan doughnuts, you're going to clog your system, is this what a wise man eats? Try a liquid diet instead, it's risk-free vegan and it's fat-free!
@@charlesfraunhofer7893 I agree! Veganism can be really unhealthy too if we eat vegan junk food.
@@elevenpoisons2484 I'm getting sick, but a glass of vegetable juice should make me better.
Hubby and I went vegan together over 3 years ago and it is bar none the best decision we EVER made after saying I DO 💍 🤵🏼 👰🏼 ❤️ 🌱
Thank you for producing such high quality work to move us forward!
i've been vegan for a week now and it's honestly become one of the, if not, the most important aspect of my life...
Cassia McKamey really happy for you!
Ooooh I can’t wait to see!!!
Vegan 2017 got 1. 6M views
Vegan 2018 gonna get 6.1 M+ views
Watching videos like this gives me hope when I live constantly surrounded by negative people that do not support the movement and make me lose faith in humanity. Thank you for making it.
Made the change to vegan around this time last year after watching this channel. Thanks so much for all of the work you guys do! I’m so excited for what’s to come for 2019!
Wonderful, thank you.. Everywhere I go in Helena, Montana I am speaking about veganism. Yesterday I spoke to a Representative of Safeway and educated her on Veganism. I was amazed to note a deplorable lack of vegan products on the shelves. The representative looked at me like she had never even heard the word. Bit by bit, slowly but surely we will get there.
My boss who's a pescatarian told me the watch The Game Changer in netflix,then i came across WHAT THE HEALTH the same day. I've been a meat and dairy lover all my life before seeing those documentaries. That was 6 days ago,and been vegan for 6 days now. I tried hard to make my friends and families watch the same shows, sad i couldn't make them watch it.Those shows are such an eye opener for me.Its only been less than a week but i feel the difference in my life already.Better sleep and full of energy even my wife is happy i became vegan because shes a pescatarian too. She said someday she will convert to vegan eventually.All i can say is its so sad about our Agencies here in the US, AHA, ADA,ACA all corrupt misleading people about right nutrition because its all about the $$$$$$ for these soulless ASSOCIATIONS. To all the VEGANS out there Thank you and lets all keep trying saving lives from disease and lies about plant food.
Fabulous film. Ten years vegan and I'll be sharing this. Thank you 💚
The Future is Vegan 🙌🌎🎉
we must support the Ong animal fighters and sanctuary vegan they need more support
You'll change your tune when your hair begins to shed & your teeth begin to rot from a high sugar & nutrient deficient plant diet.
@@davidday8692 really? So how do you explain my hair growing thicker and faster, teeth getting whiter and nutrient intake increasing since going plant based over a year ago??
Sb Miah I went for vegan for a month and it gave be super powers
Week four of a plant-based diet. I am never going back.
The right side of history people!
History is written by winners so no matter who wins the winners are on the right side because they get to write it.
Southy those are great losses but the ppl behind those things still won. They back both sides of every war.
Southy same as always power and control with bonus profits. War is profitable sadly.
I love these (what I call yearly vegan reviews) as I find them encouraging for times when as a vegan you're concerned with the small dent veganism is making it actually shows a WAY BIGGER picture veganism is making on the whole world, it's a huge impact. It also acts as education for those that are new vegans or are just plain curious. As a life long vegan I'm so bloody proud.
The truth is like a lion;
you don’t have to defend it.
Let it loose;
it will defend itself.
Love it
I am so PROUD to be a part of this community!!!!
Nicely done! I was Vegetarian for 16 years and finally educated myself on veganism. I’m proud to say I’ve been vegan for a month and never going back. It’s weird bc as I read many books, watched TH-cam and etc. I feel like the “curtain” was lifted and I was able to make an educated and ethical decision on how I want to live my life. #ProudBabyVegan
This film made me cry out of joy and being so completely touched by how far veganism has gone!! I felt like a mom seeing her child finally graduate uni and grown into a beautiful adult...!! 😭😭😭😭
That must have been an editing nightmare! Brilliantly done and cheered me up seeing how much progress is being made. Thanks for this film.
How can you get as strong as an ox and not eat any meat?
Have you ever seen an ox eating meat?
I love that.
yes - kind of forces them to just think a little more about what they are doing and saying - without telling them that they are .......stupid!
Rob Louw It's not necessarily stupidity but more a question of education and we should all be responsible for that.
True... but the ox spends every waking moment eating - like most herbivores. Let's not get too carried away with silly stuff.
O.m.g are you really that dumb
An ox eats grass. Do vegans eat grass also?
When I grow up, I am going to rescue all of the animals.
Please not forget about the insects killed by insecticides and the animals killed by the harvesters and others agricultural machines.
aiming a bit high there kiddo, not gonna happen!
First we must rescue ourselves, then the animals. That way you won't burn out and will I'm sure create so much change. Lovely comment though🥰
@@koczaioandaniel4014 That happens because farmers are not vegan, research veganic farm

When the lady said "We will live in a completely different world in 5 years" I almost cried because I've been vegan 5 years and so much has changed since then, but so much MORE will change, because a revolution like this will be exponential.
haha. same.
plus, english-speaking countries are much more advanced on veganism than other countries like France or Belgium where i live. I'd say we're about 5 years back compared to the USA. so, I hope we'll keep rising like vegans have in the US.
@@pxxsa4043 never say never.
most vegans though themselves addicted to animal products and would never have though to quit before they did. now, I'd never go back, the though of it makes me sick to my stomach.
I hope you'll allow yourself grow and go past your addiction of killing animals. there are so many ways to enjoy forest and nature other than by walking aorund with a riffle ;)
I actually cried listening to them talk about how the world IS changing. I've only been vegan for a year and a half & I felt so proud & hopeful watching this.
I thought the exact same thing!!❤
Next month will mark three years of me being vegan. That was the same time I decided to start my TH-cam channel. Happy holidays to everyone.
Yeah Juice!

Be careful. My mom almost died from going vegan. It’s going to cost you a lot of money and health. Coincidence that eggs and liver have every nutrient that humans need? I think not. Plants are literally poison.

Message to dairy farmers....grow plants everyone. We don't hate you, we hate what you do.
@Southy Even dairy farmers are saying that they will have to go plant based in the future...

Dairy consumption may be decreasing and plant based milks are becoming very popular but dairy still has plenty of years left, make no mistake about it.

Great video! Thank you for reminding me that this is a growing movement and to make me feel that we might turn this around before we destroy the planet!
Loved watching this! What an amazing journey veganism has had this year. So pleased to now be a part of it. May it grow and grow 💚🌱🥦
Awesome and uplifting video! Sometimes as vegans we feel as though everyone is against veganism, this video reminds us of the truth - the world is changing for the better!
It is, and the next generation will chide those who aren't changing now
3babies 1arm Everyone agrees vegans are annoying and pushy. At best you're a good looking girl vegan and people are willing to deal with you but that's it.
@@DavidAthy annoying? For wanting people to be kind to and not harm animals? How strange if you to think that's annoying!
By the same token, I Know a few (heaps!) Of meat eaters who are annoying... Just because you have a specific lifestyle and you're annoying, doesn't mean all the people in that lifestyle are the same.
I eat veggie burgers but not the ones that taste like meat or smell like meat...I want nothing to do with meat or dairy...
Aldi has the best veggie burgers in my opinion I love the 11 veggie one and the kale one.
@@amarism1718 Thanks for sharing hope I can find them here....
I agree. Could never even try sth that tastes too much like meat. But I think beyond burger and similar are an important step to changing the habits of those who say 'but I love the taste of meat'. It's only the first step, but everyone has to start somewhere
Same, but I agree with Adriana Gabriela
kudos to you. Me too
I want to go full vegan at 2019.
Me too.
You got this! How's it been? If it's hard, try at least being vegan one day a week. :)
@porquilho That's usually because people don't know what they are suppose to eat on a vegan diet. So they get sick, have headaches and don't get enough nutrients. Let's not forget ppl detox too which can make them feel tired. That's how I was until I saw a whole foods/plant based nutritionist. Just got my blood/lab tests results from my doctor and I'm as healthy as a horse. Been vegan for almost a year now. :)
@porquilho I'm living it though. It is easier than I thought and it is cheaper. It is a change. I went from eating steak & hashbrown for breakfast to oatmeals & smoothies. :)
Me too!!
The most brilliant part of this documentary is using a clip from Joe Rogan in favor of Veganism! I love it!
To me that clearly shows that the filmmakers have no clue what they're doing. Just editing together some random stuff is not brilliant at all. Here is another clip from the guy you love to have in your "documentary" th-cam.com/video/1BUL78hbkLA/w-d-xo.html
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services You're welcome! And yes, he is talking facts-in both clips. But he is not bashing vegans in the one clip and he is not promoting veganism in the other. Just wanna point out that editing together some random stuff to make your point of view look good is poor filmmaking.
I am speechless, its really happening, wow. Thanks
thanks for tuning in!
I’ve been struggling for years turns out I’m intolerant of dairy and eggs turns out lots of us are. It cost a lot of money $300 for the blood test. Best money I ever spent. Now moving into a vegan diet.
Amazing Movie! Thank you guys again for your great work.
Congratulations on the release of the film! Always looking forward to it. Of course, as always, sharing it! Here in Indonesia, the movement is growing too. More vegan/vegetarian options in cafes, daily catering programmes and more. 2019 is gonna get grand-er whoop!
Hi, I'm 2 years on vegan life style is fantastic.
Yes can’t wait for the film!! I’m going crazy waiting for it! Thank you Claus and PBN for all the work you guys do.
I feel like I was manipulated by the animal industries and our „traditions“ all these years in which I consumed animal products. Killing animals seemed to be so normal to me because I wasn’t taught to think differently until this point of my life. Thank you for opening my eyes and the eyes of many other people. Thank you for revealing the truth. The future is vegan 🌱💪
Kiss on your forehead !
I think a lot of this anger at vegans comes from trying to deny guilt
Karen Loxton I agree with you totally...
I am plant-based and I disagree the anger comes from Vegans pushing it down peoples throats ( in the past PETA and the rest ) but now it's being done with proof and not quilt. It's the proof that opened my eyes not the guilt. Flims like Forks over knives and Pure Plant Nation etc. That's how it was for me. Plant power. Have a great day.

Do it for yourself, do it for the animals, do it for the planet
Or do it for other humans (that are technically animals too).
Just wanted to point out that world hunger is caused to some degree by animal agriculture.
And the same is true for world thirst. And then there is the humanitarian catastrophe around global warning.
@@pxxsa4043
Your way of living violates the golden rule (common to all religions), humanitarian standards, utilitarian ethics, AND Kant's categorical imperative. So it is immoral, no matter which moral system you choose.
And that hunted meat is healthier than processed meat is not even sure. Hunted animals often live much longer than those raised in a factory farm. So they have much more time to accumulate environmental poisons over time. What they surely do because there is no way around that. Sure they don't get antibiotics. But I would actually prefer antibiotics over a higher concentration of environmental poisons any day. Because my body can handle antibiotics. But most environmental poisons are accumulated in my body as well, and it is hard to get rid of those.
@@pxxsa4043
Why it makes sense to talk about a will to live in animals, it makes no sense to say the same about plants. So the golden rule does not apply to our behavior toward those living things, which do not have a will to live and can't feel pain. And there are actually parts of many plants that the plant produces to be eaten by animals. Ever heard of fruits?
Furthermore, if you eat animals you actually do more harm to plants than any vegan. Because those animals are fed with plants. Tons of tons of plants.
"Also would that golden rule apply if it was a hungry lion in a cave and you were in it."
I'm not stupid enough to get into this situation, so this point is irrelevant. But self-defense is generally acceptable.
"This is a dog eat dog world and we are basically animals."
It actually isn't any more for humans. We made laws and enforce them to make sure this isn't true anymore.
We are still animals, but our animal ancestors never ate this much meat, and since what you tried there is the naturalistic fallacy it doesn't matter anyway. But you should really think twice before you build your worldview on fallacies. Generally no great idea.
"Most if not all religions follow the belief that animals are meant to be eaten."
Actually, correctly translated, the Abrahamic religions forbid the consumption of meat. The old testament states that we have dominion about the animals. But correctly translated it is the dominion a wise king has over his people. Ever heard of a wise king who eats his people? And then the bible goes on to tell you to eat fruits and seats and stuff... but meat isn't on the list.
Buddhistic monks are mostly vegetarian due to their religious beliefs. Jains never harm animals. And then there are all those vegetarians and vegans in India which draw their inspiration for this lifestyle from their religions as well.
So, as far as I see it, if people would be really religious and understand their religions, they would be vegetarians at least. But we can agree that many people ignore their religions to the extend that they can eat meat, dairy and fish.
"The golden rule does not apply to animals because they dont have the mental capacity that a human does."
That's not correct.
"Japan is the healthiest nation that eats a lot of unprocessed food involving meat."
Japan was the healthiest nation because they ate very little meat and little fish. The tradition Okinawa diet was 95%+ plants.
"... you are right but it wont kill you."
At least not on the spot. The problem with high meat diet isn't that you drop dead in the very moment. You can actually feel pretty great eating tons of meat (although I never felt as great as on a whole food plant based diet). They will kill you in the long run. And that's what people don't get. You can not say "I like this diet and don't feel bad, so it does not harm me". The only way to see the long term effects is to lock at the scientific consensus. And the result is: Meat is unhealthy.
"Veganism is a cult that worships animals as gods"
That's bullshit. We just take their pain, suffering, and wellbeing into consideration. If you think that it needs worship to do that you are no nice person.
@@Chiungalla79 hes ignorant

I've been a vegetarian for 4 years now, and two weeks ago, I went full vegan! I'm super excited that I finally made that step and know that I am doing the right thing.
What a super film! WOw! I'm a newbie vegan and watching this gives me such incredible hope for our future, the future of the planet and the future of our dear animals.
“Every revolution starts with a whisper, but the real change comes with a roar” 🌱💓
Wow. Just wow! Everybody needs to see this now!!! One year vegan and two years plant based this New Year’s Day, and I have no regrets at all 😁
We need more vegan films in foreign languages. Few have dubs. Most of the time I have to pause and help explain whats going on in the film or pause so my mom reads the subtitles. Just putting this out there. Otherwise wonderful film
Imagine many decades from now, they'll be saying, "Can you believe that our ancestors used to eat animals?" and all the healthy children of the world will turn up their noses in disgust and confusion. My only regret in this lifestyle is not doing it sooner. I'm sorry for all the times I called vegans protein deficient. I'm sorry for reading the books I was given on the subject too late. I'm sorry I didn't wake up until last year...but I'm glad I did...and I hope more people follow in that path. Learning on your own really helps--doing your own research on these subjects from your own curiosity. We just need to spark people by asking a few necessary questions to have them question their own judgements. Easier said than done, but this is not a fad. This is not a short-term "diet". This is a lifestyle...and one worth living. Save the planet, save the animals, and save your own lives. #GOvegan 💚
Agree completely!
Why do vegans look ill and old? I hate meat but that scared me. Someone did a survey of Vegans on YT and it is eye opening!
YES! vegan babies are so healthy that they won't suffer any old age disease...because they DIE after a few months of being born.

She really did. Then she swished her glass of milk and it didn't move, like it was curdled or something. It really grossed me out tbh.
I thought the same thing! She sounded like she was struggling to breathe at the same time as eating.

Thank you to all directly involved in this production - these films have advanced the consciousness of VEGANISM worldwide by YEARS - by leaps and bounds - even in SOUTH AFRICA we are changing - Cape Town fast - Johannesburg fast - come on Pretoria - still not one Vegan only restaurant in Pretoria - when I think back on all the hurt and suffering I caused by my daily choice of what I consumed I feel a great shame and regret that I did'nt change sooner - it was fishing that started me slowly realising that it can't be right to pull a fish out of its environment with a sharp hook that you lodge into the throat or mouth of your victim - just imagine for a second how that MUST feel - then you toss it into the back of the boat and suffocate it - and then we call it SPORT - being right there as that violence was meted out did change me - stopped fishing at 12 - then took myself off to an abbatoir to watch proceedings - also changes you - seeing the EXPLOSIVE GROWTH over the last 5 years it is starting to look likely that we will be virtually completely VEGAN in 15 to 20 years - a carbon TAX on meat and Parliaments around the world getting more and more VEGANS so that laws will be crafted by VEGAN consciousness very soon - lets just call it a sweet spot - but with increasing ACTIVISM
I am currently not vegan, trying to stay vegetarian. Just because of excuses and tradition. I really believe in the idea behind Vegan, just I have to find my way through it. Powerful movie
Milen Nedkov watch Earthlings. watch without distractions, alone, phone off in a quiet setting. you'll find it very easy to never eat meat again. good luck

@@davidwilliams9386 my mother told off this neighbor who was making fun of my activism with actual facts so🤷🏻♀️ pretty good I'd say
@@doodle3984 yeah ridicule is pretty common from people who know they're doing something immoral, a defense mechanism if you will lol
Thank God. People are finally seeing the truth and developing compassion. This video sent shivers in my body because I’m so happy to see the changes
Am a 20 year old vegan (since feb 2017) living in Kenya, Africa. It's really hard being vegan here,especially during the holiday season. I try sharing documentaries like this to my friends and family but they honestly don't bother. They claim that issues like these mostly affect the western countries.
Healthy food like fruits and vegetables are relatively cheap here but people just love meat.
I've also noticed an increase in fast foods from the west like KFC, Chicken inn, etc being marketed in my country. Sad ik.
@@mello.b3373 YOUR A FOOL
@@mello.b3373 Well, you are entitled to your opinion
@@mello.b3373 Which facts?
@Wise Owl Intuitive Services Thank you so much for the encouragement. I will stay strong because i love animals, they don't deserve to be mistreated. 🥗
@@mello.b3373 Do you realize what meat is: the flesh of tortured animal who suffered a horrific life? A moral life is a life of not causing harm and suffering to others. Animals feel pain just like you do. Humans can be the cruelest and most ignorant and selfish beings on the planet. Don't be one of those! Live compassionately, live vegan!
i proudly turned vegan this year... really excited that its almost been a year!!!!!
Dominique Wiedeck welcome new vegan. Stay informed by reading lots of great vegan educational books and watch lots of great vegan cooking shows on TH-cam, the more informed you get the better your success on this lifestyle will be :-)
SAME!!!! :D
I am 15 and just became a vegan two days ago and WOW it is truly spectacular
yay. the movement keeps growing
Watch some Ex-Vegan interviews first. Then decide again. ;-)
Okay I’m literally crying seeing the major change and it’s so beautiful. We’re doing it. It’s happening.
I'm scared for the Earth, but hopeful for the vegan shift
