My friend asked me to tell her about being vegan, but not to tell her anything that might make her give up meat. It made me wonder whether people are afraid of finding out about the abuse of animals because they might find they are affected by the knowledge, and are scared of having to deal with a change in lifestyle.
When I went to the Viva Roadshow there were lots of graphic posters outside which were quite off-putting. Someone in the audience of one of the talks mentioned that perhaps it would be better to put up less intimidating posters to engage people so they come in out of curiosity, and then they could be encouraged to go vegan in a much more positive way. The chap giving the talk just nodded thoughtfully and moved on to the next question.
