  • What if the whole world went vegan tomorrow? Well, first off, I’d be doing this.

  • [hallelujah chorus]

  • And a little of this.

  • [funky dance music]

  • But okay, I’ll talk some about what else would happen.

  • This question has been asked many a time to many a vegan. Todays comes from Niko F who

  • asksIf tomorrow the entire world became vegan, what would happen to all animals in

  • the slaughterhouses?”

  • Well number one, as much as I would love for it to happen, the world is not going to go

  • vegan overnight. But lets say, for arguments sake that it does. Well, the food industry,

  • like any industry, is all about supply and demand. If we don’t demand animal products,

  • they will cease to be supplied. So farmers would stop breeding animals for food. Now

  • for the animals already there, the worst case scenario would be that, finding there is no

  • longer a demand for theirproduct,” farmers might abandon or slaughter their remaining

  • animals. In the best case scenario, the animals would be sent to sanctuaries. But, in reality,

  • even the worst case scenario is countless times better than continuing our current system

  • of slaughtering billions of animals every year.

  • Jackie V adds another common concern brought to vegans. She’s say’s she’s often asked

  • "But if we save all the animals, the world will be over populated, that's why we have

  • to eat them so they don't overrun us." Now before I get into a factual refutation of

  • this statement, let me just say this: saying that if we didn’t slaughter, eat, and hunt

  • animals, they would overtake us is like farting in a room all day and saying that if you weren’t

  • there to open a window, the stench would overtake you. In both cases, humans are the ones creating

  • the problem. What I mean is this: the reason there are so many animals is because we breed

  • them. Both with our food industry and hunting. We create artificial populations. State wildlife

  • agencies boost deer populations and breed game birds to create hunting opportunities.

  • And our food industry breeds billions of genetically modifiedfood animalsto satisfy our

  • demand for animal products.

  • In both cases, if we stopped the demand, the supply would stop in response. The wildlife

  • populations would find their own balance based on predators and available resources.

  • And let’s not forget the amazing things that would happen if the world went vegan

  • tomorrow! There would be an end to the meaningless slaughter of billions of lives, the 80-90%

  • of our crops that currently go to feeding our food animals could feed the world’s

  • hungry. The environment could start to heal from the devastation of the animal products

  • industry. Natural habitats destroyed by industrial agriculture could start to have a fighting

  • chance.

  • No more would mother pigs have to feed their babies while lying cramped in gestation crates.

  • No more would mother cows have their children ripped from them moments after birth. No more

  • would male baby chicks be ground up alive in the egg industry. No more would billions

  • of sentient, innocent beings live tortured, painful, terrifying lives only to be killed

  • without even as much as a thought.

  • That is what I think of when asked what would happen if the world went vegan tomorrow. And

  • that is the answer that matters.

  • For more information on what I talked about in this video, please see the links below

  • in the description. I’d love for you to subscribe to the channel and join our bite

  • size family. Now go turn the world vegan!

What if the whole world went vegan tomorrow? Well, first off, I’d be doing this.
