January 29, 2010
Tomorrow, global organizers are promoting the second annual World Day for the Abolition of Meat, which calls for an end to food-animal slaughter. Participants will host conferences, distribute fliers, hold public demonstrations, and hold quiet candlelight vigils. Event representative Anushavan Sarukhanyan says the worldwide movement intends to generate public debate, addressing people not only as consumers, but also as citizens. Actions will take place in 51 cities and 12 countries—including South Africa, Switzerland, Bolivia, Portugal, France, and the US. Over six million food animals are killed every hour, according to the Worldwatch Institute.
