Vegan Food and Living
At Ecotricity, our mission to end the use of fossil fuels is part of our wider vision for a zero carbon Britain. Since we became the world’s first green energy company in 1995, we’ve been giving people a real alternative in the form of ethical green energy.
Did you know a lot of the energy supplied to our homes is not vegan? The factory farming of animals is a huge contributor to global carbon emissions and some energy suppliers use animal by-products to generate both electricity and gas. This is wrong, both in terms of climate and animal welfare. That’s why we’re the only energy supplier to be certified as vegan – by both The Vegan Society and Viva!, the vegan charity.
Vegan energy is energy produced without involving animals. Solar and wind power produce green electricity without using animals but gas can be more problematic. That’s why we use anaerobic digestion of green matter to make biogas. Find out more about our vegan energy here.
We’re proud to partner with Vegan Food & Living magazine and website. They’re equally passionate about veganism and spreading the message to make it accessible to everyone. Being vegan is about more than food, it’s about embracing a healthy lifestyle that doesn’t harm the planet.
Vegan Food & Living is a great source of information and advice on vegan food, news, health, environmental issues, ethics, fashion and beauty. As well as a monthly magazine and website, you can sign up to weekly newsletters covering health, recipes and news.
