Author and environmental activist Richard Schwartz, Ph.D., is 90-years-young and still going strong. His secret? “I have followed a vegan diet for decades,” he says. “I am convinced that that has been the key to my longevity and remaining healthy at an advanced age.” He also believes that animal-based industries are destroying the planet by largely contributing to climate change. “The world is eating itself into distinction,” he adds. “If people don’t embrace vegetarianism and veganism on a massive scale, I am convinced that humans will be extinct by 2100.” An experienced media guest, Richard is the author of “Vegan Revolution” and several other books.
