Hubs are VegEco's standing reference pages: each one gathers everything we have published on a single question — switching to a plant-based diet, the water footprint of dairy, the welfare cost of caged laying hens — and keeps it current as new reporting lands. Where an article answers one question at one moment, a hub is meant to stay useful for years.
Every hub is assembled from our own reporting rather than syndicated summaries, and each is available in all 33 editions of the magazine. Start with the group that matches what you are trying to decide: food and nutrition, farmed animals, climate and land, or everyday consumption.
A hub begins with a question readers ask repeatedly. We map the subtopics that a complete answer requires, assign each to the desk that covers it, and then link the resulting articles into a single page with a plain-language orientation at the top. When a claim in the underlying reporting changes — a new life-cycle assessment, a revised welfare regulation, a corrected figure — the hub is updated rather than replaced, so inbound links keep working.
They serve three audiences at once. Newcomers get a sequenced route through a subject instead of a pile of headlines. Readers who already know the basics can jump straight to the sub-question they came for. Teachers, campaigners and journalists get a citable overview with the primary sources attached to the individual articles, which matters more than another opinion piece.
Categories are editorial desks — they tell you which team produced a piece. Tags are narrow subjects that cut across desks. Comparisons weigh exactly two options against shared criteria. Hubs sit above all three: a single hub will typically draw on several desks, dozens of tags and a handful of comparisons to answer one broad question properly.
| Page type | Best for | Typical scope |
|---|---|---|
| Hub | Understanding a whole subject | Dozens of articles, updated continuously |
| Category | Following one editorial desk | Everything that desk publishes |
| Tag | Tracking a narrow subject | One theme across every desk |
| Comparison | Choosing between two options | Two subjects, shared criteria |
| Article | One question, one moment | 1,200–2,200 words |
