Lierre Keith believes that veganism is one of the things destroying the planet. After speaking with her, so do I. Why do vegans eat dead dinosaurs? What did veganism do to Lierre's health? What do we really need to do to stop destroying the planet and get back in balance with our ecosystems? These are some of the questions Lierre and I explore in this discussion.
