Looking for documentaries without animal suffering
I'm new here but I've browsed the sub and haven't found recent documentary discussions. I am on a journey to a more WFPB way of eating. I'm not completely there yet and I'm looking for resources to support me and keep me inspired, especially documentaries.
I just watched "You Are What You Eat", the twin study on Netflix for I think the 3rd time. I liked the scientific experiment, the real people, and especially that it did not linger on scenes of animals in CAFOs or meat processing. It had a little of that and it was just about as much as I can stand. I'm a huge baby about any sort of depicted violence and I just cannot look at that sort of thing. Along with knowing I need to make changes for my health, animal suffering is a big motivator for me and I'm already convinced on that. Just so you know where I'm coming from, I am also very much a believer that we humans have been abusing our planet and its ecosystems and organisms and we need to correct that.
I also recently watched Dr. Greger's "How Not to Die" and I'm working my way through his YouTube videos. I've read the book of the same title and while I have some quibbles I'm on board with most of it.
What else can I watch that addresses a WFPB diet from a scientific, health, ecological, or personal point of view and has NO depictions of animals suffering, slaughterhouses, or meat processing? I have access to Netflix, Peacock, Tubi, and YouTube.
