Veganomics

I thought I would put something up about vegan economics with the hope that I can generate some genuine discussion. It seems appropriate to include something here upon economics as measurements of economics are innately tied in to the success and effectiveness of this blog. I also felt it was appropriate to reflect upon the New Economic Foundation's measurements of wellbeing in respect to veganism and sustaining a low impact diet.
I suppose we have to start at a statement of exchange, that vegan economics is both sustainable, promotes life,culture and wellbeing without reliance upon animal products or animal exploitation. We could expand this further by reflecting upon the 5 ways of wellbeing and discuss that the nature of such exchange involves giving,learning, activity,connecting and taking notice (www.neweconomics.org). This expansion upon such exchanges means we can all have the potential to practice vegan economics ('veganomics') without necessarily subscribing to veganism, but by undertaking social,financial,emotional and physical exchanges that are low impact and supportive to non-human life.
