The request comes after Harris established a new framework for the nation's space strategy that emphasizes climate change and has previously referred to climate change as a "moment of crisis." PETA has written to the 57-year-old, pushing her to do more and participate in Veganuary, a 30-day vegan challenge.

The letter states: “PETA appreciates the steps you’ve already taken to help animals, the environment, and future generations, and we hope you’ll lead by example on this critical issue by promoting vegan eating in Veganuary.”

It also adds, “It’s impossible to find real solutions to climate change without addressing animal agriculture, which, according to some estimates, is responsible for more greenhouse-gas emissions than the world’s entire transportation sector. If everyone ate vegan foods rather than animal-based ones, it would drastically reduce the impact of climate change.”

The organization even offered to help her out with a vegan starter kit for her and her team that has recipes, and suggestions for her to try out a plant-based diet.  Speaking about this, PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman added: “The United Nations agrees with PETA that there’s no such thing as meat- and dairy-eating environmentalist, so it only makes sense for Vice President Harris to lead by example and go all-in on animal-free eating.
