Tag: Veganism percentage

Recent surveys by the Hellenic Vegetarian Association (HellasVeg) and Kantar AE reveal that only a small fraction of the Greek population identifies as strictly vegan. However, a growing portion of Greeks are exploring plant-based alternatives and consciously reducing their meat and dairy consumption, driven by health and ethical considerations.

While there is no single, definitive global figure, estimates suggest that the vegetarian population ranges widely depending on the country and data source. The vast diversity in cultural, religious, and economic factors makes determining the exact percentage of the human population that is vegetarian a complex and challenging endeavor.

While determining the exact global vegan population is challenging, recent surveys estimate that the worldwide vegan percentage is around 1%. This figure is an estimate due to varying data collection methods and regional differences, but indicates that a vegan lifestyle, while still a niche choice, is gaining traction globally.
