Almonds Are Not The Problem, Eating Animals Is

This is the latest graphic I designed with Lorelei's research
for our grassroots campaign Truth or Drought
where we make the connection between animal agriculture
and the California (and world-wide) droughts
The meat and dairy industry have created a campaign
to vilify almonds, calling them the #1 water consumers...
but of course almonds are NOT the problem
Animal Agriculture is... there are several articles online
where you can check these numbers.
And our sources are clear...

And from an ethical point of view, remember
almonds don't suffer when separated from their mothers
so humans can drink their milk (my homemade almond milk)
nor they suffer for years while living in horrible factory farms
nor scream in agony & pain when being slaughtered

So eat almonds, they are good for you,
drink almond milk, almond ice-cream,
have an Amaretto, but please
Do Not Eat Animals or their secretions
that is what is destroying the planet,
and killing billions of innocent beings.

There are some things money can't buy (like water when it's gone).

For everything else, there's veganism.

#SaveWaterEatPlants! #TruthOrDrought

Meme for Truth or Drought

Save little water, or a lot of water!

You can save a little bit of water
[short showers, not watering your lawn, a brick in your toilet]
 or
you can save A LOT of water, and a lot of animal assassinations
[Going vegan!]

I designed this graphic for Truth Or Drought

  ‪#‎TruthOrDrought‬ ‪#‎SaveWaterEatPlants‬!

Be good to animals and the planet

Graphic I designed for Truth or Drought

Save Water, Eat Plants!

I am proud and thankful to be part of the Truth or Drought team
I design many of the graphics, the leaflets and lawn signs

lawn sign design, so many people in California got our signs!

I am so humbled and thankful for all the people displaying our lawn sing on the front yards!

I do this as a volunteer on my free time,

not that I have much as I work full time as a graphic designer

but since I became an activist for the animals

I truly enjoy working on graphics or talking to people

about not eating animals, or using them on any abusive way

or going to protests...

just as the other members or Truth or Drought
we all volunteer our 'free' time...
we are a small group (mainly 3 people, lately 2 others are helping too)
we created this group to open people's eyes
to the fact that animal agriculture is causing the
devastating water shortages in California (and the planet)
All of our research is fully sourced by scientific research!
Here the latest graphic I created under Lorelei Plotczyk's supervision
and her superb research work. She writes and researches all the
graphics for T or D. I only make them a visual reality.

It is plain and simple: We (the entire planet) are running out of water. Animal agriculture uses a LOT of water and creates all sort of environmental problems, and needless cruelty & suffering, for both animals & humans. We can eat the plant protein directly and save water, stop the suffering, and heal our planet. Nowadays you can find vegan hamburgers in every supermarket, they taste better than the 'real' thing too and are healthier, you can find chicken-less chicken, all sorts of non-dairy cheeses, you can find cow milk substitutes (or make your own), you can find vegan cakes, cupcakes, donuts, pies, pancakes, etc. etc. etc. So if you eat animals is only because you are OK with violence, cruelty and destroying the planet, see? Plain & simple ‪#‎SaveWaterEatPlants‬! ‪#‎TruthOrDrought‬

The patriotic thing to do

From Truth or Drought
Be FREE from cruelty to the animals,
to the planet and yourselves.
Happy Independence Day
Save Water, Eat Plants!

Animal Agriculture and Our Planet

Intensive  Animal Agriculture uses more water
than any other activity and is one of the leading
sources of greenhouse emissions.
We can all heal the planet and ourselves.
As easy as becoming a vegan.

" World-renowned nutrition scientist and creator of the glycemic index Dr. David Jenkins in The Globe and Mail on why he advocates shifting to a plant-based vegan diet: "Human health must be linked to planetary health, and how we feed ourselves has a major impact on the planet...Our children and future generations will be horrified that collectively we paid no attention to these issues."
