Do animals have rights anyway? What about your pet? Are they looked after properly? Do rabbits need to wear make-up? Is it right that beagles should smoke cigarettes? What do you think about factory farming? Is fox hunting a sport or just plain cruel? This book takes a positive, light-hearted approach to the subject of animal rights, telling the message without distressing information. It outlines certain key areas in the debate on animal rights, from questioning what people eat, campaigning against animal testing, knowing what products to buy, to doing something positive for animals, for example, helping at an animal hospital/shelter.

Water Footprint

On World Water Day (22nd March) and on every other day, for that matter, we need to remember that meat-eating carries a giant water footprint.
Did you know? It takes 13 million litres of water to raise and convert one cow or ox into meat!
Did you know? To produce one portion of beef (250g) requires the same amount of drinking water that one person needs (at one litre a day) for 34 years of life!
