"Aesthetic life choice" my ass lol. I am fortunate enough to not have to rely on a car (don't even have a driver's license) but suggesting others can when public transport in the US is that bad is just silly. Veganism is something you can actually easily practise though that has a meaningful impact on both the environment as well as animal well-being. This is not about "aesthetics": it's about making life on earth easier for everyone - both humans as well as animals alike.
