January Theme: Breakfast for Dinner

Speaker: Keith Akers – Author, Activist

Come hear Keith talk on “Veganism and the Environment” on this special night! Keith will give an overview of basic livestock-related environmental issues such as climate change, resource depletion, and mass extinctions; and, he will go further into the issues that the movie,“Cowspiracy,” raised. There will be time for questions and answers and a discussion.
