You know the animal movement’s winning when major meat companies are now producing plant-based meats and advertising them in meat industry trade publications.
You know the animal movement’s winning when, on the same day, a Washington Post columnist touts our success while a New York Times columnist condemns the chicken industry’s rampant cruelty.
You know the animal movement’s winning when the right-wing National Review runs a column on why animal protection is a conservative issue, and the New York Review of Books runs a must-read Peter Singer review of Wayne Pacelle’s new book.
You know the animal movement’s winning when schools across the country are signing up for HSUS’s plant-based culinary trainings.
And you know the animal movement’s winning when all this, my friend, happens in just one week.
