"It was only when my wife, Eunice Wong, took me to see Cowspiracy, the documentary by Kip Andersen and Keegan Kuhn, that I fully understood how severe the damage the animal agriculture industry has done to our democracy, as well as to our health and our environment. My attitude toward becoming a vegan before seeing the film was similar to Augustine's attitude toward becoming celibate: "God grant me abstinence, but not yet." […] The film documents the cascading, domino-like impact of animal agriculture on the global ecosystem. I realized when I saw it that the animal agriculture industry was one of the most important forces in the corporate strangulation of the common good. And I kicked myself for missing this."
Cowspiracy
