There's an direct analogy to be drawn here with the civic planners of the 60s, 70s & 80s who sought to reassure the public that their government had plans to reboot society in the aftermath of a nuclear war... sociologists label them "Fantasy documents"!

It's another huge step in this admin's plan to hand America’s most cherished public lands over to extractive industries, real estate developers & corporate interests.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

I don’t watch them as a vegan. We are vegan because we don’t support this. The nonvegans need to see the reality they support. The violent and horrific videos are what converted me overnight from vegetarian to vegan 11+ years ago. We have to hope this will get to more people.

#Veganism is not a health brand. It is not a diet trend. It is not a wellness aesthetic that rises or falls based on ingredient lists. Veganism is an ethical position rooted in a single, non-negotiable claim: animals are not ours to use. Everything else is secondary.
