Submission declined on 8 May 2019 by CASSIOPEIA (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Earthling Ed (Ed Winters; birth name is Edward Gaunt) is a UK-based animal rights activist and educator. He is co-founder of Surge, which organizes The Official Animal Rights March, and runs a popular YouTube channel under the moniker Earthling Ed.
He also runs The Disclosure Podcast,[1][2] in which he interviews both vegans and ideological opponents. He has appeared on national news outlets, such as BBC, speaking about veganism.[3][4][5]
Activism
editHis activism involves speaking tours at universities, as well as Socratic-style discussions with ordinary people.[6][7]
Earthling Ed focuses much of his activism engaging in open conversation with non-vegans.[8][9] He has also done exposé work on animal agriculture, including filmed protests at farms and a 2017 documentary Land of Hope and Glory.[10] At the time of writing (2024), he has over 435,000 subscribers on YouTube.[11][12][13]
Personal life
editWinters turned vegetarian in May 2014 after coming across a news article about a chicken truck crashing near Manchester.[14][15] Upon reading that many of the birds had died, he realized "the animals we eat have the capacity to suffer, and therefore they wish to live a life free from suffering."[16] He then became vegan in 2015[17] after watching the documentary Earthlings.[18]

editEarthling Ed has written two books:
- This Is Vegan Propaganda: (And Other Lies the Meat Industry Tells You) (2022) ISBN 978-1785044243[19]
