World Vegan Day marks the start of World Vegan Month, a month dedicated to celebrate the vegan movement. Vegans worldwide acknowledge how far the vegan movement has come, reflect on successes, and raise awareness on the benefits of a vegan lifestyle.

The infographic below by Statista shows that between one to three percent (1-4%) of Americans are vegan, depending on age. In terms of income, vegans are most likely to be earning below $30,000 a year. Liberals are far more likely than moderates or conservatives to ditch meat or dairy.
