In animal rights news, activists speak for our co-inhabitants in Cologne, Germany. Hundreds
of caring individuals participated in the “Your Voice for the Voiceless” event to
raise awareness about the treatment of our fellow beings. It was organized by the Animal
Time Association in cooperation with Students for Animals, both Germany-based animal welfare
groups. Various booths displayed how a compassionate vegan lifestyle not only helps our animal
co-inhabitants, but is also fun, healthy and the best for our Mother Earth.
Silke Bott (Vegan) German Vegetarian Union
“Your Voice for the Voiceless” event Germany
(In German) Silke Bott(f): Every time if we eat purely
plant-based instead of meat, we ensure that practically no demand for meat is being generated.
That would be good for the animals but most of all for the planet, for health, our own
health. It is very, very important, not to eat meat. We can only stop this climate change
if lots and lots of people join in doing so.
ANCHOR: Delicious vegan food was served to encourage the adoption of plant-based eating.
In addition, a walk through the city was held to inform about the connection between animal
cruelty and consumption habits, and how a vegan lifestyle is a benevolent alternative.
Our Association members were part of the procession, carrying an SOS banner. Moreover, there were
speeches, music, and theater performances by schoolchildren.
Thomas Müller-Schöll (Vegan) Protector of the Earth, founder
“Your Voice for the Voiceless” event Germany
(In German) Thomas Müller-Schöll (m): A vegan diet has
so many advantages, be it for climate protection, for protecting the rainforests, for global
justice, for world hunger and especially of course for the animals’ protection.
“Your Voice for the Voiceless” event participant (Vegan)
Germany
(In German) Participant (m): It is very important that
we are compassionate towards our fellow creatures and then also actively live it. Be Veg, Go
Green 2 Save the Planet!
(In German) Participant (f): I hope that the whole planet
becomes vegan. Be Veg, Go Green 2 Save the Planet!
Bravo, Animal Time Association and Students for Animals, for planning this gathering and
for your commitment to promoting kindness. May all join the growing number of vegans
to ensure a future of peace and love for our world.�
