He prefers his own invented label, &#8220;futurevore&#8221;, and has put serious money behind it: a pea-protein plant, The Game Changers, and vegan catering on the Avatar sets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tiv-check\">Last fact-checked: July 7, 2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The environmentalist&rsquo;s math<\/h2>\n<p>Cameron&rsquo;s case for plants is characteristically blunt, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.onegreenplanet.org\/news\/james-cameron-has-an-environmentalist-challenge-for-you-video\/\">delivered as a challenge<\/a>: &ldquo;You can&rsquo;t be an environmentalist, you can&rsquo;t be an ocean steward without truly walking the walk; and you can&rsquo;t walk the walk in the world of the future, the world ahead of us, the world of our children, not eating a plant-based diet.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>And on the meat-and-masculinity mythology, from the <a href=\"https:\/\/vegnews.com\/james-cameron-vegan-diet\">February 2026 interview<\/a>: &ldquo;We are indoctrinated with that since the time we&rsquo;re born, essentially. It turns out you don&rsquo;t need meat, and in fact, it&rsquo;s unhealthy.&rdquo; He didn&rsquo;t just say that, he produced the receipts: The Game Changers, the 2018 documentary about plant-based elite athletes, exists because Cameron and his wife executive-produced it.<\/p>\n<h2>The vegan timeline, tap to expand<\/h2>\n<details class=\"tiv-tl\">\n<summary>2012: the 24-hour purge<\/summary>\n<div class=\"tiv-tlb\">Suzy shows him Forks Over Knives.

Aus S\u00fcddeutschland, besser gesagt aus dem Schwarzwald, seit 2019 Gr\u00fcnder von This Is Vegan, mittlerweile in Bali zuhause. Von hier aus treibe ich Tierschutzprojekte voran und reise um die Welt. Vegetarier bin ich seit dem 6. Lebensjahr, vegan seit \u00fcber 20 Jahren. Mein Ansatz war nie, Leuten ein schlechtes Gewissen zu machen. Sondern zu zeigen, wie einfach, lecker und entspannt vegan im Alltag funktioniert. Anziehung statt Ablehnung. Genau daf\u00fcr gibt's dieses Online-Magazin und den Plantbased Podcast: Menschen inspirieren, sich f\u00fcr Tiere und Umwelt stark zu machen und vegan zu leben.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.this-is-vegan.com","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/yannick.haldenwanger\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/yannickhaldenwanger\/","https:\/\/www.pinterest.de\/thisisvegan_magazin\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@thisisvegan"],"knowsAbout":["vegane Ern\u00e4hrung","holistische Gesundheit","Ern\u00e4hrung","vegane Rezepte","Kampfsport","Kraftsport","Proteine"],"knowsLanguage":["deutsch","englisch","franz\u00f6sisch","indonesisch"],"jobTitle":"Gr\u00fcnder","url":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/author\/yannick\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40590"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40590\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40615,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40590\/revisions\/40615"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40641"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40590"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40590"},{"taxonomy":"ernaehrungsform","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ernaehrungsform?post=40590"},{"taxonomy":"schwierigkeit","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/schwierigkeit?post=40590"},{"taxonomy":"schaerfe","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/this-is-vegan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/schaerfe?post=40590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
