5 Environmental Reasons to Go Vegan while Living Overseas

Diana September 17, 2019

An encounter with a veterinarian who denied the impact of methane in the environment prompted me to write this week’s blog post and to pose some questions: Are we doing enough to reduce our environmental footprint in our nomadic lifestyle? Are we removed from a global concern due to the nature of our transient life? Is there something we could do/adopt/try wherever we are?

With the concern that many of us might not think it possible to go vegan while living overseas, I’ve put together 5 environmental reasons to help you see the potential and the opportunities there are for you and the planet, no matter where you live. I’ve also included useful links to recipes and contents for the omnivores who aren’t ready to make the shift. Enjoy and go green!
