Texas Cattle Ranchers Go Vegan, Turn Farm Into Animal Sanctuary | NowThis 

True. I learned the facts and switched around age 60. Like most vegans, I now wish I had done it sooner One thing's for sure- I'm vegan for good!

And show what a WEAK husband she has he opened his mind and his BRAIN FELL OUT

@@faithfultotheend5202 You seem to think that you would have to be brainless to think that way. Some intelligent, widely admired people who chose not to eat meat- Pythagoras, Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci, Voltaire, Newton, Benjamin Franklin, Nikolai Tesla, Albert Einstein, Gandhi, Albert Schweitzer, George Bernard Shaw, Tolstoy, Thoreau, Saint Francis of Asisi, and many more. Some on this list switched late in life, but stayed on it to the end. Ben Franklin switched at age 16. "Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet." -Einstein (Of course today, he would be vegan. So would the others on this list.) The famous Professor of Physics Brian Greene is vegan. You may have seen him on PBS hosting science shows for the layman. Jane Goodall recently went from a long time vegetarian to vegan. Greta Thunberg is vegan. Wikipedia has a more complete list.

@@someguy2135 You can pick and choose what part of my comment you want to respond to, if you want, but my main point was a lack of compromise, instead the husband completely caved to her threats. She shoved it down his throat. He was FORCED. I have nothing against being a vegetarian, I have considered it myself. I very rarely eat red meat but God gave us free will even Adam and Eve were vegetarians at first. My big issue is the lack of compromise. God does not program us to be certain ways. We don't get struck by lightning bolts from the sky when we do something he doesn't like. The life we live is our legacy, the name we make for ourselves now is what we will have when we pass over. And that is what counts with God. And that is what I strongly feel also. God bless.

@@faithfultotheend5202 Kudos for significantly reducing your purchases of red meat. That helps our environment, and (everything else being equal) reduces the number of innocent sentient animals being bred into existence to suffer and be needlessly killed long before their natural end of life. May I ask why you rarely eat red meat? For me, it was the health concern I had. I later learned all of the other reasons to boycott all animal based foods. Beef and lamb are the most damaging to our environment, and climate change. The huge number of them produce a huge amount of methane, which is 80 times more potent than CO2 in the first 20 years. "While the wildfires raging in the Amazon rainforest may constitute an “international crisis,” they are hardly an accident. The vast majority of the fires have been set by loggers and ranchers to clear land for cattle. The practice is on the rise, encouraged by Jair Bolsonaro, Brazil’s populist pro-business president, who is backed by the country’s so-called “beef caucus.” While this may be business as usual for Brazil’s beef farmers, the rest of the world is looking on in horror. So, for those wondering how they could help save the rainforest, known as “the planet’s lungs” for producing about 20% of the world’s oxygen, the answer may be simple. Eat less meat."- CNN Another reason they burn the Amazon is to grow soy. "More than three-quarters (77%) of global soy is fed to livestock for meat and dairy production. Most of the rest is used for biofuels, industry or vegetable oils. Just 7% of soy is used directly for human food products such as tofu, soy milk, edamame beans, and tempeh." -Our World in Data

Poor dude was forced to be a vegan

@discorperted If they aren't making money from raising cattle for the beef industry, but instead are using their land as a animal sanctuary, then naturally, they shouldn't pay as much in taxes, no? You see this as a problem somehow?

discorperted Being a regular farmer is not beneficial to anyone either, except the farmer.

@@knit1purl1 What a bizarre comment...

@@charlesstone591 ?????

100% agree with you.

It depends on the husband, I’d say. You’ve really got to know the person you’re dealing with. Often, it’s much more useful to be kind and patient. Renee chose a more aggressive approach, and luckily for the animals and their relationship, it worked.

And an amazing woman who truly knows what she wants.

@discorperted no likes

@@pdut23 Ha Ha...very good

I love them!!! They are amazing!!! 🥺🧡 🐄 🥺💕

same here! ❤

Thats actually above humanity. The next step of evolution. Regular humanity are murderous apes.

I love veal steak.

@@Jungleman707 SO FUNNY AND ORIGINAL!!!

@@Jungleman707 If you make your ethical decisions strictly on taste, we all better hope you don't decide you like the taste of human flesh!

@@4ngellvc874 Look, cows were born to be meat on sticks. It's better to have a life and be eaten than have no life at all. At least a cow is useful unlike most humans.

​@@Jungleman707 eat dogs or cats faeces that's next on the meat eaters menu! Proud vegan from the uk 💚💚💚🌿🌿🌿

That is the humane thing to do!

ok cow worshipper 😉

Not just a cow but all animals deserve this way

@Carl Jung You talking like you never eat a fruit or a vegetable in your life. Be vegan, save the animals, the environment, the planet and your soul

No kill lives

@River -_- and salt

Jesse Leland when you factor in the plants we feed to livestock, the amount of plant deaths eating meat is way more than eating the plants directly🤟

True

when people say "behind every great man is a great woman" she could be the mascot .

Maybe I should try that with my husband. He eats meat (Not much of it because I do most of the cooking!) but maybe I’ll give this a go. I was intending to persuade him to do Veganuary but that for months away!

@@juliewake4585 Good luck to you both! My vegan partner and I are very happy.

@@someguy2135 cheers pal. I know it’s not a good idea to push him but bit by bit I’d love to think he would get there.

Just like you're actually commenting for attention but don't have any real facts?

@discorperted oh please, its the land of the free, if thats what makes them happy, and its good for environmet, you sgould be happy for them. Your educational system is rigged since decades, get less and less money and the rich get more rich. Please stop spamming this under every comment.

@discorperted Because, of course, compassion is never to be factored - not in your world. I suspect you're an animal murdering industry troll. If this couple aren't paying as much in taxes, that makes me happy, since they ARE supporting those innocent creatures which were initially bred to be mass murdered.

@discorperted That's reaching for straws, and not only a poor argument, a non-existent one.

@discorperted "They are exploiting loopholes and being selfish" but it's legal and they're actually using a tax incentive in the exact way it was intended, no? Explain what they're doing wrong? It sounds like you're just anti-vegan.

pabloplato so few people actually need a reality show...but.... THESE PEOPLE DO! I’d sure watch! ☮️💜🐄

Absolutely. The texas rancher and his fiesty wife forcin him to go vegan and he can't sell the cows. Its a great show.

that would be amazing..

Joe Exotic with a happy ending!

William Wright I’m with you bro!

I'm trying not to eat meat and it's hard for me cause I grew up with a family that eats alot of meat

Hang in there all 😊 I grew up in the country eating meat, hunting, owning cows for their meat. I've been vegan over 6 years now and I literally never consider going back. Animals are beautiful and smart individuals, their lives are so rich with experience and emotion. We are all animals sharing a delicate global eco system, we need to all work together to live our best lives.

oh, come on, I can't hate human kind because of people like you

Don't worry I will eat twice more meat for you.

🙂❤

Yeah, I was having a discussion on Sartrian existentialism with a cow friend of mine and we debated in three languages after we were finished with the writing of a song. They're just like us... BTW, a human baby and a calf are drowning, you can only save one, who will it be ?

You want too learn from cows.................. good luck

@@saxyrep1 Oh, gotta love that stupid, "If this or that one were drowning.." routine. My mother, who was abusive, knew how much I loved my dog, so she used to pull that one on me. She wouldn't want to know the answer. And my father, who was not abusive, never asked such questions. Good thing my mom didn't ask "If your father and I were drowning....etc."

Eddie C vegans have a higher risk of strokes

@@lew2875 100% incorrect. Please cite any source for this, so much objective, verifiable research shows the opposite is true.

Cris Tofu search up The Daily Record and search on the site vegans and see what comes up. I read it the other day in the newspaper

@@lew2875 so I did find a study that was conducted recently (probably what the article you read was based on), it did find that vegans and vegetarians had slightly more cases of stroke. There's two important points you left out though: 1. This study looked at vegans AND vegetarians as one group (which isn't really ideal). 2. The vegetarian/vegan group had a much lower rate of heart disease, which the study's lead author herself concluded that the benefits of the decreased case of heart disease outweighed the much lesser increased risk of stroke. Also worth mentioning, she explicitly stated that much more research needs to be done and that while the study demonstrates correlation, it is not sufficient to prove causality.

Cris Tofu well what was in the news paper said just vegans

you will soon turn to dust

S M Why is that Mr “no content” useless account with nothing meaningful to say?

@@kerryn6714 right

@discorperted I grow my own food

@discorperted let me mute your comments ,pulchritudinous world with crazy people living inside of it.

@April I am looking into Keto. I have to do the calculations on reducing my caloric intake, increasing my fat intake, and avoiding carbs. Thinking about it just now, I heard whilst on Keto, one meal a day is a viable enough.

thanks for sharing!

BeauTiful HearT

@@naneeleo823 Well hello Nanee!..good to hear from you

It's no point saving a few hundred cows at the most, when millions are killed every month. We need to curb the demand by stopping advertising like it's done for tobacco.

I am from Asia but I don't agree Hindus and Buddhists are enlightened. Most of these people who turn vegetarian do so for religious reasons, are not vegan and not for the animals. Most of them even eat meat by claiming they are in a "different" sect. Even monks, especially Thai monks.

A beautiful queen.
