Veg Spotlight
Veg Wisdom
I think and speak clearer since I cut the dairy out. I can breathe better and perform at a better rate, and my voice is clearer. I can explore different things with my voice that I couldn't do because of my meat and dairy ingestion. I am proud and blessed to be a vegetarian, everything became clear. - Common
Jan Spencer
Jan Spencer is a 13 year resident of Eugene.
He has been a social activist since high school.
His formative experiences have included:
- living 2 years at a rural Ozark commune,
- over five years traveling out of the US to over 35 countries,
- discovering a talent for artistic painting during that time, and
- learning to speak Italian on location.
Since moving to Eugene, his activism has become more focused on urban land use issues and, by extension, contemporary trends in global politics, economics and resources.
Change towards a far more local conservation culture has become Jan's primary focus.
