Hi dear,

Isn't it obvious that Vegetarianism/vegenism, the overarching solution for many intertwining urgent global challenges? Just name a few BIGs, Climate Change, Animal Rights, Water and Food Security and Public Health(avian and pig flu, Mad Cow...and all that threats?!) etc...

A few fellows from Geneva are promoting an idea of establishing an international alliance - Global Vegetarians Against Climate Change (GVACC) to bring this idea/action into global political agenda and actions.

And you are welcome to join this campaign in very initial stage.

Here are some very initial basic information about GVACC.

Vision: A climate- friendly sustainable world full of healthy and happy vegetarians

Mission: Save the World; One bit at a time.

Goal: Double world vegetarian population every decade - from current 3 percent to 24 percent, 1 in 4 human being will be vegetarians in this small planet by 2040

Main Strategy: Unite and mobilize current 3 percent world vegetarians into a global campaign aiming to double vegetarian population every decade

Strategic directions:
1. Economics and Legal: Ban subsidy and add Meat Tax
2. Information and Communication: For instance, adding climate impact on food products, vegen festivals
3. National and regional mobilization/gross roots

Organization: - Global Vegetarians Against Climate Change(GVACC) - A "planning" Geneva-based international alliance of organizations promoting vegetarianism as a major solution for intertwined problems of Climate Change, Food Security, Safe Water for ALL, Health, and Animal Rights.

First debut of GVACC: Campaign for combating Climate Change through reducing meat consumption at the UN Climate Change Conference, Copenhagen Denmark 7-18 Dec, 2009

How can you involve now?
