About |
Vegan PeaceVegan Peace wants to inspire people to strive towards a more peaceful world where animal and human rights are respected and honored. I focus a lot on animal rights, since animals aren't even granted the basic right to live. I believe that animals are sentient beings and that they shouldn't be treated as our property. I hope that one day the animal industry that abuses and exploits animals will be completely abolished. |

Whether we want to contribute to the harm caused to animals is a choice we make with every meal we consume. Our current eating habits are causing the deaths of billions of animals and the destruction of our planet's ecosystem. We are also raising our children on a diet that puts them at great risk for developing serious health problems. I believe that veganism is the ideal situation for this planet and everyone that inhabits it. |
About MeVegan Peace is run by me, Wanda Embar. I was born in Leiden, the Netherlands in 1969. I studied mathematics at the University of Leiden. After completing my first year of studies, I moved to Toulouse, France, where I lived from 1992 to 1995. At the University of Toulouse, I studied mathematics applied to social sciences and obtained my DEUG (Diplôme d'études universitaires générales), which is equal to two years of university studies. I then moved to Wisconsin, U.S.A., where I started working as a computer programmer. That's where I currently reside. |

I became vegetarian around 1985, by
following my older sister's example. In 1990 I became vegan after reading
about the suffering dairy cows go through. That's when I realized how connected the meat and
dairy industry are. Veganism means a lot to me, because it is about
limiting the suffering we ourselves cause to animals. I've also gotten involved in issues like sweatshops. It was very shocking to me to find out how badly we treat our fellow humans in order to produce products as cheaply as possible. You can read more about sweatshops on my Sweatshops and Child Labor pages. Other issues close to my heart and covered on this website are gun control, parenting and organic agriculture. |
