He’s a YouTube sensation, nonprofit founder, professional orator, and vegan restaurateur in London. Give him thirty seconds to speak, and you’ll hang on his every word.    What we discuss in this episode:   - How Ed Winters became Earthling Ed    - How to communicate intellectually and calmly    - Combatting common arguments to the plant-based diet   - Hunting   - Surge, Ed’s nonprofit   - The broken system of the dairy industry    - Animal agriculture and zoonotic disease   - Ed’s restaurant, Unity Diner   - Follow Earthing Ed on Instagram @earthlinged   Connect with Switch4Good - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ2toqAmlQpwR1HDF_KKfGg   - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Switch4Good/   - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/switch4good/   - Twitter - https://twitter.com/Switch4GoodOrg
