Philosopher Michael Huemer discusses his book, "Dialogues on Ethical Vegetarianism," focusing on the problem of the severe suffering of most animals currently raised for their flesh, skin, milk, or eggs. He also discusses the difference between a strict vegan diet and a diet that includes bivalves and potentially lab-grown meat; the alternative strategy of reducing one's consumption of animal products; the problem of social conformity; and more.
