Joaquin Phoenix chose veganism 40 years ago and excited everyone with his speech at the Oscars. Taking advantage of the moment of fame when the attention of the media and fans was attracted to his person, he said that he considered today to be the most important for himself and for the world.
Childhood memories
Actor Joaquin Phoenix talked about how he decided to become a vegetarian. As a child, he was present at the scene when fishermen killed fish. I must say that few at such moments think about the feelings of the fish, much more rejoicing in the catch they received.
Having survived with her brother several traumatic scenes of this kind, they decided to stop eating meat and any product of animal origin.
It's time to come to your senses and change the world
The Oscar winner for the best male role in the movie Joker believes that humanity is developing in the wrong direction, infringing on the rights of minorities and those who cannot stand up for themselves, destroying the planet and the prospects for living on it.
A new attitude to fashion
Phoenix devoted his life to creating a better world for animals, not only becoming a vegan. At the Oscars, he did not wear a new suit to draw attention to the crisis of overproduction and the destructive influence of fashion.
In the pursuit of new things, we don’t think how much fresh water was needed to produce each of them, and how much chemical waste from the production of fabric should be drained into clean sources.
