Since 1997 I have recorded and edited over 150 one hour videos of well known vegetarian spokespeople discussing the major benefits of a vegan diet. Most of them are available online at

http://www.vsh.org/videos.htm

Included are 12 of my own lectures to the Vegetarian Society of Hawaii (VSH), primarily on the ethical, environmental, and human health aspects of a vegan diet. They are listed below with particular topics located at minute:second points (eg "7:22") on each tape that can be reached by moving the slider and hitting "play" or by simply clicking on the topic.

I thank all the past and present board members of VSH whose dedicated and voluntary efforts made the free monthly lectures possible, with particular thanks to our video host James Thompson who uploaded them all to YouTube for worldwide viewing.
