Please reach out to Chelsea Davis at [email protected] for speaker, tabling, co-host, and other requests. Thank you to the City of Beaverton and the Beaverton Farmers Market for supporting this event! --MORE DETAILS COMING SOON--- Animal agriculture is one of the planet's most destructive and harmful industries. Numerous published studies show that meat and dairy production and consumption are a driving force behind our deadly ecological crisis. We must act now to ensure the survival of our species and all those that inhabit this planet. Be part of a historical day of action with 40+ cities all over the world as we collectively demand a societal vegan paradigm shift that normalizes non-violence, sustainability, and collective liberation for all sentient beings through the immediate development and transition to a plant-based veganic food system. Our demands: 1. Individuals that can, must adopt a vegan ethic and lifestyle to immediately boycott the harmful and oppressive meat and dairy industry. 2. Governments and elected officials must immediately end all subsidies and bailouts for the meat and dairy industry. 3. NGOs, institutions, and governments must endorse the Plant Based Treaty (https://plantbasedtreaty.org/) and commit to taking action to support a plant-based food system transition.
