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!

Geneva (Switzerland), 25-05-2011
About 10 activists dressed in black, stood in front of
the
Bel Air fountain from 12.15pm to 1.15pm as a sign of mourning for all the
animals that are killed each year for their flesh.
Many people stopped by to read the figures on the signs stating the number of animals killed in the world every minute, every hour and every year.
Many people also helped themselves to pamphlets.
The media coverage was good, with a long article and a picture in "La
Tribune de
Geneve" as well as an interview and a public interview by One Fm.
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.
