It sorta sounds like a copout but being vegan on a day to day basis means checking what is in every little thing you eat or drink, I mean literally checking labels and searching ingredients. And then you have to apply this thought process to every other area animals are used:
-Bath supplies
-cleaning supplies
-clothing/shoes
-transportation
…and so on.
Best advice is to just pick whichever area you feel most knowledgeable or capable in, and become “vegan” in that category.
I’m not even entirely vegan, although its mainly because I’m still learning a lot about all the different ways animals come into our lives without realizing it.
P.s. almost forgot the parts vegans split on in some occasions, like with sugars or honey.

I guess what I’m really asking is, besides doing my best to consume less (meats and in general), what are the bigger steps an individual could take to avoid contributing to those industries?
one step in the process of refining cane sugar involves passing it through a charcoal filter to remove impurities, essentially to whiten it. And this charcoal is sometimes made from something called bone char, which is literally the charred bones of animals, mostly cattle and pigs
