Earthling Ed on How to Argue With a Meat Eater

As an activist and educator with years of difficult conversations under his belt, Ed Winters (known online as Earthling Ed) has made an art of bringing carnivores and vegans together.

From facing down online critics on his popular YouTube channel to making his case in hostile environments like GB News, Winters has proved to be one of the most informative and compelling voices on veganism today, wracking up millions of views and hundreds of thousands of loyal followers across online platforms.

On May 20, Earthling Ed comes to Intelligence Squared to make the case for veganism and to teach us all how to become better conversationalists and critical thinkers. He’ll be discussing his latest book How to Argue With a Meat Eater (And Win Every Time) with Jenny Kleeman, acclaimed journalist and author of Sex Robots & Vegan Meat. Ed will reveal how to tackle every argument against veganism, from the alleged lack of protein to the idea that it's too expensive to eat a proper vegan diet.

We welcome meat eaters, vegetarians, pescatarians, vegans and all to join the debate, challenge assumptions and get informed on one of the most hotly contested issues of today.
