Kip Andersen is an American filmmaker, producer, writer, entrepreneur, and the founder of Animals United Movement (A.U.M.)
[4] Andersen graduated from the school of business at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo.
[6] Andersen's interest in the environment began after watching the film An Inconvenient Truth, which caused him to change his lifestyle with the aim of becoming more environmentally ethical.
This included incorporating everyday habits such as recycling, conserving power by turning off lights, showering less to save water, and riding a bicycle instead of driving a vehicle.
After becoming more involved in the environmental conservation world, Andersen learned of the impacts of animal agriculture on the environment, which led to his interest in creating documentaries that criticize these industries and encourage people to adopt a vegan lifestyle.
