Veg Out is hosted by a group of Toronto vegans who share their passion for all things veg through discussion and interviews. We offer a space for everyone from the veg curious to dedicated vegans to learn about what's new in the veg community, covering such topics as animal ethics, vegan baking, local events and news.
Ever wondered about roads and wildlife? Yes? No? Well, either way we'll get you all caught up on this topic. On this episode, Jen and Sweta talk about Ben Goldfarb's book Crossings, a book all about road ecology.
