Great talk Tobias. I agree that dealing with most you must take a different approach.
An example as such is the Australian animals protection organisation 'Animals Australia'.
In 2001 they realised an expose on National Televison of an Indonesian Australian cattle Slaughterhouse. The scenes were akin to an extreme horror movie. I became Vegan immediately as well as many others.
The rest of the country demanded an immediate ban on live export to some countries. It was stopped until the animal ag industry forced the government to reconsider.
24 years later the majority of Australian citizens are still demanding the ban of live export of all animals. Our latest government is phasing our sheep export by 2028. Have these people turned vegan? No; but they have been triggered by empathy.
We can't just rely on animal protection organisations anymore due to the decline in hard hitting journalism from water downed media. We as individuals need to cultivate empathy and steer people towards understanding,not demading.
Excellent talk, thank you. I found the slide at 17.30 really mind-expanding, so many untapped channels of communication. A lot of new ideas throughout, well done!

TY, Tobias. I agree. It is so important that we advocate for animals, not a collection of everything we want personally.
I think walking back-and-forth is good for keeping people's attention. (Am I just rationalizing my personal preference? ;-)
(i think the walking is fine for people in the live audience, but here it's a bit problematic :)
