Lewis Hamilton Urges the World to Move to Vegan Diet After Australian Bush Fires Disaster – Essentially Sports

It is a well-established fact that 6-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton is a firm supporter of veganism. So, he uses every opportunity to try and convince his fans to adopt a plant-based diet.

Earlier this year Australia was rocked by catastrophic bushfires and parts of the continent continue to burn. So, he pleaded with his fans to not only aid in Australias efforts to recover, but to save the environment by going vegan.

The Mercedes driver regularly uses his platform to advocate for veganism and stresses on the need to save the environment. In the wake of the devastation, he expressed his sympathy for everyone in Australia and then posted a series of stories about the impact of animal agriculture on the environment.

Grazing livestock is responsible for 54 percent of Australias land use. Urban usage is less than 0.18 percent. Eight percent is conservation, read one post, which credited the Australian Government, Department of Agriculture and Water Resources.

Lewis Hamilton also referred to an Oxford University study that supported the vegan diet and its positive impact. According to it, the diet is supposed to be the best way to reduce a persons negative impact on planet Earth. It affects, not only greenhouse gases, but also global acidification, eutrophication, land use, and water use.

Aside from Hamilton, the likes of Daniel Ricciardo and numerous celebrities pleaded with the publics about Australias plight. They also made sure to donate to various charities to help tackle the fires.

The situation in Australia is so dire that it is believed that more than one billion animals are now feared dead in the blazes. Infernoes have also ravaged more than 2,000 homes, and more than 30,000 square miles, across New South Wales and Victoria killing an estimated 27 people.

In response to the disaster, a fundraiser was set up to help those affected. Reportedly, it raised more than $20 million Australian dollars in 48 hours to help tackle the fire.
