Yes I never eat fish of any kind. I gave them up 7 years ago after taking a class in environmental ethics. It’s quite easy in fact and they even make some decent vegan fish that typically uses konjac and I assume seaweed of some kind.

Well we are bombarded by toxins but that’s hardly a reason to give up. Coke Zero is carcinogenic. Pickled vegetables are too. Lightly so, but also scientifically proven so. Well you can be one of those people who gives up and says “well damn California says everything is toxic these days!”, but where does that mindset end? Might as well take up a cig habit if the toxic swamp of life is unavoidable. But.. much of it is avoidable. And eating vegan is a big part of avoiding it for a few reasons.
