We are promoting, on a volunteer and independent basis, the demand for the abolition of the production and consumption of animal flesh throughout the world; that is to say, the prohibition of products that come from hunting, fishing and farming because they require the exploitation, suffering and death of sentient beings.
Join activists throughout the world for the January 2012 WWAM and hold actions to raise awareness for the abolition of meat!

Besançon (France), 24-09-2011
Two presentations/debates were organized on the same day. The first took place on Place Marulaz, during a restaurant open house (a collectively-organized vegan restaurant open to everyone and set in the public plaza), but was poorly organized. It attempted to continue in a nearby and independently-managed venue. Several people who were interested in knowing more attended the presentation. The second took place in the evening in the same place. It addressed the political lines between anarchism and anti-speciesism and therefore tackled the question of the demand for the abolishment of meat. Polemical debate ensued. Lots of interested people. Everyone seemed to agree to disagree in the end.
Because meat production involves killing the animals that are eaten,
because their living conditions and slaughter cause them to suffer,
because eating animal products isn't necessary,
because sentient beings must not be mistreated or killed unnecessarily;
therefore, farming, fishing and hunting, as well as selling and eating animal products, have to be abolished.
