I don't think killing plants is totally insignificant. They are a very different life form so they are very difficult to understand from our point of view. However we do know that plants have sensations, that they can be able to communicate to each other, they can support each other and in some cases the older trees are supporting their youth by giving them more nutrients. So I would no day that killing plants are insignificant.

Does it means that it's pointless to be vegan ? No of course, especially since most meat is fed with cereals grown in huge monoculture. It's neither good for animals or for plants. Personally my position is more to try and consume food that has been produced in good conditions, vegetarian or not

Whatever your position on the treatment of plants is, being vegan means less plants are being killed, since livestock, you know, eat too. It takes a lot of food to feed livestock. So, not worried about plants? Go vegan. Worried about plants? Still go vegan.

@periwinkle @BastingChemina eat what you want don't go around telling people what to eat. Humans have been eating whatever they want. You can't change that by being a sensitive crybaby on the internet so shut up
