Vegans Of Faith

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 5th of July 2022    You have decided to go plastic free, but you don't know where to start.  If I assume you know nothing and are a complete newbie, then at first, it can seem overwhelming as you realise just how much plastic is used from packaging to the product itself.  This blog will give you a great head start in making the transition to a more sustainable life, but it is only the beginning.  

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 27th of May 2022 Christians and Jews are among the most Earth couscous people i know.  Perhaps it is down to the popularity of science in the Church or the need to show respect to God's creation, but being green and environmentally friendly is like the eleventh commandment among long-term practising Christians. Therefore, if you are new to Christianity being green is as important as anything else otherwise you are going to look odd.  With this in mind, what are the top things you can do to be that green Christian that sets the standards?

By McDonald, T.   |  Date 11th of November 2021 It's coming up to Christmas, yay, but you don't know what to buy for your vegan loved one.  Don't panic!  Most vegans like our little luxuries; however, please remember most of us try to be plastic free as well, so packaging counts. Nonetheless, it is not that difficult to find something super cool as a gift.  Toiletries     Every vegan I know is on the lookout for vegan toiletries.  These can be a bit expensive and so we consider them a treat.   Although we find the best deals and know where to get the cheapest stuff, any of the more up market soaps are appreciated.   Shampoo bars Body Soaps   Deodorant Women's stuff Shaving soap Body cream Many shops do gift sets and will even wrap them up for you.   Try looking for presents that are not in plastic.  Gift sets Pamper gift set    Other gift ideas  Candles  Interesting Shops  Enviroli Lush Clothing   Shirts  Jumpers Look at the labels and examine the fibres it is made of.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 1st of November 2021 (you need to make a date for this)    If you have been a Christian for a long time, you will have likely hear a preacher mentioning the environment.  God's creation needs our respect since Satan's intension is to undo God's work.  God creates the world; Satan tries to destroy the world.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 25th of October 2021 If you are a Trekkie, you should have a look at this.  I veganised a whole Klingon feast!  This has got really good food ideas that I still use today, so if you are a vegan and looking for a bit of Star Trek fun or food ideas for your Trekkie party, look no further because this is it! Abstract After watching many episodes of Star Trek i decided to investigate and try to make an authentic Klingon dinner.  However, since i am a vegan and cater for a Christian vegan audience, i had to consider appropriate constraints such as no meat, eggs or dairy and try to keep it healthy too.  With this in mind, i wondered if it was at all possible to create such a meal.  I searched the internet looking for suitable resources and found them although the sources where limited.  Despite the lack of suitable sites, the ones i did find where very helpful.  For instance, i discovered several Klingon dishes and even a vegetable one called Gladst, As

By McDonald, T.   |  Date 20th of August 2021 Everyone knows the importance of personal care and grooming.  Whether you are a man or a woman, there are plenty of shampoos to choose from, but not all shampoos are vegan or Earth friendly.  One of the problems is the plastic packaging for the liquid soap.  This is a problem because the plastic either is incinerated or ends up in landfill and in turn is eaten by birds who mistake it for food resulting in the bird's eventual death. This makes it a problem for vegans since we wish no harm to the animals.  With this in mind, what shampoos can we use that are kind to the animals and friendly to the Earth? Well, the answer is vegan shampoo bars! All of these bars are cruelty and plastic free. 1.  Eco Warrior Easily the best value for money.  Can be found in some supermarkets and in some chemists.  Smells great and does the job.  I have included this one because it is such good value.  It gets good reviews and comes in plastic free packagin

By McDonald, T.   |  Up dated 10th of June 2021 First, you have to realise that veganism has a philosophy that goes with it.  It is not just about food or health.  There is the whole idea of not using any animal products or destroying the environment where animals live.  With this in mind, we can see that thinking about different aspect of a product is necessary before we buy.  What You Will Need To Get Started Food ideas such as recipe books and blogs.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 31st of May 2021          Are you someone with an environmental conscience?  Do you care about the wildlife?  If the answer is yes, then this report is for you.  You might think saving the world and helping the wildlife is for specialist people with expensive skills.  Not so.  You can play a role in solving one of the biggest problems in the modern world by adopting a zero waste lifestyle and reducing your waste. Abstract In recent years, I have found myself drawn towards an idea of reducing my waste to zero for environmental reasons but was not sure what to do.  The problem of household waste is that much of it might end up in land fill and create problems for the environment, which prompted me to investigate deeper and find out if it was easy and was it realistically possible?  I started off by searching the internet for clues and literature that could help because I needed a place to start and thought this is the best way.  First, I s
