“Dr Keval Shah works as a dental surgeon by day, and sustainability educator by night.”
Keval was exposed to environmental devastation, wildlife poaching and the societal repercussions of poverty, at an early age. Born in England, Keval spent his teenage years in Kenya, where he witnessed this firsthand. His initial mission began with wanting to conserve endangered species, but later realised that enabling the sustainability of Earth’s life-support systems was key to protecting all life on Earth – humans, animals and nature – and that the trinity could not be separated.
While working as a dental surgeon, Keval started giving talks on the subject at various community centers and schools around England. Him and his wife received the opportunity to organise a global Envirocare exhibition in 2019, in Bangalore, India – where they were able to relate solutions to a global audience, in particular the need to go plant-based/vegan as a baseline for all other actions. They are currently working on helping to develop a free dental teaching hospital in Sierra Leone, one of the world’s most impoverished countries, as a way of improving healthcare in the region.
Keval recently launched a podcast on Youtube and Spotify, exposing society’s hidden injustices by sharing the stories and work of incredible vegan activists working on the frontlines, with the aim that more individuals will be inspired to support and join these empowering initiatives to serve society, help animals and protect what is remaining of our precious planet.
Keval’s life purpose is to encourage everyone to address and collectively solve the climate and ecological emergencies that are significantly threatening the existence of all life on Earth, including ours. His approach is 3-fold – physical action, societal action and monetary action.
This talk will focus on how to get the message across more effectively, facts that may interest/motivate people (bringing in the vital importance of looking after the soil and its relationship to all life), societal actions that we need to get involved with to green our planet, and financial actions we need to take in order to aid the transition to a vegan world.”
