It gave me reason to revisit my post, which is now almost 4 years old. I'll shoot you an email. Thanks.</p> <p>Mike....</p> <img src="https://michaelscepaniak.com/cdn/log-blog.png?u=%2F2010s%2Fdiscovering-sustainatarian%2Ffeed%2F&amp;s=200"> 2016-09-23T19:56:59Z2016-09-23T19:56:59Z https://michaelscepaniak.com/2010s/discovering-sustainatarian/#comment-797266 Haley <p>I'm so glad I found this! In 2013 I went from vegetarian to &quot;sustainatarian&quot;. I wish I could say I thought of all the deep and worldly issues that come with this change, but really I just missed meat and didn't want to feel bad about eating it. 😃</p> <p>Now a few years later I'm thinking of writing down my journey to (and from, sadface) sustainatarianism. I have so many thoughts bouncing around in my head, I'm worried it's going to be a book! haha</p> <p>Anyways, would love to pick your brain more on your experiences. Feel free to email me if you have time!</p> <p>Fellow Sustainatarian</p> <p>PS WHY did the word sustainable have to be the one that stuck? It takes so long to write/say things like sustainatarianism now... #lazysustainatarianprobs</p> 2015-09-29T23:45:35Z2015-09-29T23:45:35Z https://michaelscepaniak.com/2010s/discovering-sustainatarian/#comment-784173 Michael Scepaniak <p>I'm very glad my article was here to be found. 😃 Thanks, Rommel.</p> <p>Mike....</p> 2015-09-11T06:14:34Z2015-09-11T06:14:34Z https://michaelscepaniak.com/2010s/discovering-sustainatarian/#comment-782168 Rommel Dongre <p>Nice!</p> <p>This is proof that everything is on the internet!</p> <p>After a lot of independent study into diets, human anatony, the food cycles, the economics of packaged food, global consumption problems looming ahead; I decided to change my diet to be 'low environmental impact and sustainable'.</p> <p>I did not want to label it 'vegetarianism', which it was not technically; though in practice it ends up being.</p> <p>Then I searched on 'sustainatarian' on a whim, expecting to see an empty page... and was pleasantly surprised to find this and many other pages similar to this!</p> <p>So here's to Sustainatarianism !!</p> <p>Cheers!</p> 2015-05-25T20:54:58Z2015-05-25T20:54:58Z https://michaelscepaniak.com/2010s/discovering-sustainatarian/#comment-771431 Michael Scepaniak <p>Sarah,</p> <p>Good article, especially this nugget - &quot;...the key is to always be agile and ready to change our idea's when new information comes along, as it surely will.&quot;</p> <p>Oh, and of course the shout-out. 😛</p> <p>How's it going for me? Very well, thank you for asking. I've meandered over to a Paleo diet. Been doing that for close to two years now. It makes sense to me. My girlfriend, on the other hand, isn't into it. 😃</p> <p>Mike....</p> 2015-05-20T17:53:24Z2015-05-20T17:53:24Z https://michaelscepaniak.com/2010s/discovering-sustainatarian/#comment-770576 Sarah Hutchinson <p>Hey!</p> <p>I've just written and article on being a sustainatarian!</p> <p><a href="http://www.loneeaters.com/articles/22/4/2015/sustainatarian" rel="nofollow">http://www.loneeaters.com/articles/22/4/2015/sustainatarian</a></p> <p>I mentioned this blog post, and hope it can be a valuable addition to the growing sustainatarian community.</p> <p>I think this is a great article, I can really relate to the journey you went through.

That's awesome. Welcome back. I think one of the first things you need to do is slap your name up somewhere on that there blog of yours. 😃 I think I'll go subscribe.</p> <p>Mike....</p> 2012-10-28T23:01:31Z2012-10-28T23:01:31Z https://michaelscepaniak.com/2010s/discovering-sustainatarian/#comment-2288 Nicolette <p>Hi Michael,</p> <p>The defunct blog owner is me, my name is Nicolette. It's lovely to see that there are people who identify in the same way. I created <a href="http://sustainatarian.ca" rel="nofollow">sustainatarian.ca</a> back in 2008 and my journey in trying to find a label for myself was much like yours. Your post made me smile, and you are right, its important that our community grows. Thus, I am going to blow the dust off my blog and start blogging again.</p> <p>Edible flowers and rain showers</p> <p>-Nicolette</p>
