Ep 32: The Disruption of Seaspiracy & The Race Against Time to Debunk the Facts
Seaspiracy hit Netflix on March 24th, and I don't think even the vegan community were prepared for the huge impact it was about to have. Trending across the globe and hitting #1 on Netflix in the UK, the power of Seaspiracy cannot be overstated. An outpouring of news articles, statements in response, and a 'debunking' of the facts presented soon followed. Today I'm discussing Seaspiracy, the impact that it's had and some of the criticisms it's received.In today's episode:- Responding to: "What about Indigenous fishers? Seaspiracy shouldn't be telling Indigenous communities not to fish."- Responding to: "It’s not right to tell the consumer what to do, Seaspiracy is gaslighting you."- Aquaculture Alliance & false statements.- What has the pushback from the industry been like so far? - Going in depth on the Earth Island Institute/Dolphin-Safe conversation.- Facing speciesism: caring about dolphins more than tuna.- Explaining the great Pacific Garbage Patch statistic. - Did Cowspiracy force environmental organisations to change their messaging, and will Seaspiracy do the same?✺ To support the show & get access to exclusive monthly podcast episodes: http://www.patreon.com/earthlinged✺ Find out more about what I do & join my mailing list: http://www.earthlinged.org✺ Download my free 122 page e-book: http://www.earthlinged.org/ebook✺ Take a 22 day free vegan challenge: http://switchtovegan.co.uk✺ Become a supporter of my activism (thank you!): http://www.earthlinged.org/support

Ep 31: The Full Story of How I Became Vegan & Never Looked Back
In today's episode I look back upon the moments in my life that acted as building blocks towards me making the switch from passionate KFC lover to vegan. I used to love eating fried chicken, I was always up for a trip to the zoo, and as a child I laughed at vegetarians. So, what happened? And how can reflecting back on what helped us make the switch to vegan help us become better advocates? ✺ To support the show & get access to exclusive monthly podcast episodes: http://www.patreon.com/earthlinged✺ Find out more about what I do & join my mailing list: http://www.earthlinged.org✺ Download my free 122 page e-book: http://www.earthlinged.org/ebook✺ Take a 22 day free vegan challenge: http://switchtovegan.co.uk✺ Become a supporter of my activism (thank you!): http://www.earthlinged.org/support
