Once Upon a Time We Ate Animals

This book is a thought-provoking and entertaining exploration envisions a future where animal consumption has become a thing of the past. Despite the growing awareness that meat consumption harms our planet’s health, many remain reluctant to give it up. How can we effectively change behavior when conventional arguments and information fail to persuade?

Acclaimed anthropologist Roanne Van Voorst introduces a fresh perspective in Once Upon a Time We Ate Animals. By shifting the focus from the present to the future, she envisions a world where most people have abandoned using animals for food, clothing, and other purposes. This viewpoint offers a clear and compelling vision of what it means to live in a meat-free society.

A significant shift is already underway—everything Van Voorst discusses in this book is already being used by individuals and small organizations worldwide.
