Ed Winters—also known as Earthling Ed—is the voice of reason. He represents a new generation of animal activism, one that is level-headed, thoughtful, and calculated. The arguments he presents in favor of going vegan help people understand the common sense behind not exploiting animals, and he always keeps his cool. He’s a YouTube sensation, nonprofit founder, professional orator, and vegan restaurateur in London. Give him thirty seconds to speak, and you’ll hang on his every word.
