Since 2005, the Animal Rights Alliance has been a persistent voice highlighting abuse in the animal industry. With their exposés, they have been able to raise the issue of animal rights in the public political debate and have been a significant factor and inspiration for many people switching to a vegan diet. Another source of knowledge and inspiration is the American organisation PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) which is considered to be the most influential animal rights organization with over 6 million supporters. On their website you will find reports from the animal industry, tips on vegan foods and news in vegan fashion:
