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!

On Friday September the 30th, as part of the World Week for the Abolition of Meat, Droit des Animaux (Animal Rights) and nea had information booths and organised a human meat package demonstration on the Place de la République in Rennes. At 1:30pm we put in place our classic human meat package demonstration. The exchanges were diverse and varied: “And what about the children? Have you thought of the impact that is going to be provoked by a sight such as this production?” (Translation: “Well, they are going to become vegan or vegetarian!”). “Who do you think you are asking for the abolition of meat? Animals are here to be eaten, period. And as Freud said, they don't have reflective thought. We are so superior and so much more intelligent!” We will spare you the remarks shouted but said from a distance praising the tastes of steak. But there were also positive and constructive exchanges. Several people who were intrigued by the human meat package afterwards stopped at the information booths where the activists responded to their questions.
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.
