We're foodies with an environmental conscience & a concern for animal welfare.Food at our events isvegan, but we're not a vegan group in that our members range from omnivore to vegan rawfoodist. Anyone interested in lowering their carbon footprint by eating more plant based meals, even if they are not planning to or trying to go fully veg, has found the right group!
Meatless Meetup is run cooperatively by a committee that ranges from 6 to 10 people. Bruno Massé's statement works as a good summary of the views of this group:"The whole point about the case against meat is this: as a species, we have to eat less meat, and drastically so. Even if we don’t want to see it, we are responsible for the well being of each other, the planet and the life forms that still inhabit it. That’s a fact.
Moralizing, demeaning or ridiculing people who have different ideas and practices than you is generally not the way to help them or further the cause of the Earth."
If you wish to join, we'd love it if you used a real first name. Welcome!
We're also supporters of Earthsave Canada and encourage anyone who's interested in supporting a charity that promotes the shift towards a plant based diet to join them. www.earthsave.ca
