Exposing The VEGETARIAN MYTH! | Lierre Keith

Keith delves into the ecological implications of removing ruminants from grasslands, highlighting their crucial role in preventing desertification through nutrient cycling. She emphasizes the interdependence of all life forms and reflects on her transition away from veganism, acknowledging the challenges of confronting counter-information and personal health issues.
