We can only hope that the story of #TomBombadilPig (which has been all over the media in the past wk) & indeed his poor mum, who was slaughtered within hours of giving birth, touches some hearts & makes ppl think about the terrible cruelty they're paying for 🙏 Pls go #VeganForHim & #VeganForHer 🐷🌱

Hashimoto's Cactus, plants feel a sensation similar to pain when picked, cooked or eaten. Some even try to digest you back. Any consumption is cruelty to a degree. That is how biological evolution works. This high horse you've fabricated for yourself would blow over with a slight breeze.

If we really want to help, we need to move beyond vague questions and get specific: What can we actually do to save the oceans? The single most serious threat to marine life: industrial fishing and bycatch. The most effective thing we can do: stop consuming animals.

Netanyahu claims Iran is developing a Nuclear Weapon (For the last 34 years and counting) and is 'a danger'. Israel actually has Nuclear Weapons, has attacked 9 countries in the last 2 years and is currently invading 3. We all know who the danger is.

Zionism vs Judaism. Here is an image that should explain the difference, Jewish photojournalist Heidi Levine being punched, kicked, stamped on and robbed, by Zionists. #ZionismIsRacism

Oh look, the size of land burned in Indonesia in September was double the area from a month earlier, according ​to a deforestation monitor, as the country battles fierce wildfires that ‌have caused air pollution, respiratory problems and transboundary haze. #collapse

If animals are killed "humanely", why doesn't slaughterhouse footage ever turn vegans back to using animals? Why does the footage instead turn people vegan?

The below really sums up the healing power of veganism for me, as most of us learned to suppress our innate empathy as children. Sensitivity turned survival mode in a world filled w cold indifference. I wish I knew then what I know now, but am grateful I had the chance to change. It is everything ❤️‍🩹

Imagine how cheap a burger made of legumes could be if it received 580 times more subsidies, like beef does. Imagine how cheap nut milk could be if it received 554 time more subsidies, like dairy. Imagine how cheap fruits could be... "...lasting into near-term human extinction". #NTHE

#EU spends hundreds of times more subsidies on high-emissions beef and dairy than legumes and nuts foodrise.org.uk/press-releas... We could end half of all climate heating (W/m2) overnight. That we don't even discuss it, shows that we are not serious about wanting to live on. #climate #NTHE

Imagine yourself in a tight airplane seat. Uncomfortable and unable to even stretch your arms and legs. Now take that discomfort, and imagine experiencing it for over ONE ENTIRE YEAR. This is the *daily* reality for farm #animals. 24/7. 😡

A lot of talk about Polanski stepping down as leader, always from Labour supporters And you know why? Because Labour supporters want the Greens back in their box, a fringe single issue party with 1 MP, who won't challenge them. Well that ain't happening Onwards and upwards #VoteGreen 💚

Here's something the media is hardly talking about. This Government is set to oversee the steepest fall in living standards in modern times - unless they change course fast. In less than two weeks Labour faces a stark choice - will they tax wealth and back the majority?

Support Zack Polanski. He isn’t responsible for any antagonism directed at Jewish people. Netanyahu and the leaders who support him are and that includes the chief rabbi, the British board of deputies, the people who property to speak for Jewish greens but don’t support Polanski

💔 This is what the DAIRY industry so indifferently deems as ‘ #DOWNERS’… Mothers who have been so mentally and physically abused that their bodies can no longer stand of their own accord Not old age Not an anomaly An industry norm 😞 Disgusting. Unnecessary. Cruel. Ditch animal abuse & go vegan ⚖️

I spent years researching the dairy industry and talking to people from all walks of life — from university professors to supermarket cashiers, from chefs to farm workers. And what continues to shock me is how many people, even highly educated ones, still don’t understand this one fundamental fact.
