Mayim Bialik has been very open about her diet, parenting techniques and religion lately. More recently, the actress talked about the connection between veganism and the environment in a blog post.
"The health benefits of limiting meat and dairy are well documented, but perhaps more compelling is the environmental impact of a world devoted to massive consumption of animal products, which is truly unbelievable," Bialik wrote. "Here's an example: cattle around the world eat the amount that 8.7 billion people eat, and consume ten times the grain that Americans themselves eat. A Harvard nutritionist has stated that 60 million hungry people could be fed if meat intake has reduced by 10%. It's unfathomable. Being vegan is truly an earth-loving act!"
In the post, Bialik also cites the ways Judaism supports and encourages a vegan lifestyle.
