ABSTRACT
The conclusion offers insights into how other animals, especially when they become part of everyday geographies, can disrupt and disturb anthropocentric navigations of the world. In particular, in Britain, where animals other than companion animals are often hidden in the urban landscape, a conversion to veganism can bring to the fore the lack of animals in contemporary human lives. Nonetheless, the real or imagined relation between humans and animals informs the changing everyday lives of vegans. In this chapter, beyond-human geographies of care in the past, present, and future are considered as a commitment to multispecies relationships not only through refusal, but also through building an alternative beyond-human geographical imagination. As such, this chapter contends that geographers have a critical role to understanding veganism as an inherently spatial praxis that has yet to fully emerge in the discipline, with expansive temporal and spatial implications and realisations that are growing in both visibility and importance in the world around us. The conclusion also provides a summary of the chapters, and of the three parts of the book.
