Transition Town Lewes’s Food Group presents: Carnivores or Vegans: who’s saving the planet? A debate
The Ainsworth Room, Southover Grange, Lewes £3
Can a meat-free diet reduce one person's impact on the environment even more than giving up their car or forgoing several plane trips a year, or would a vegan diet destroy the British countryside as we know it? With animal emissions accounting for 18% of total greenhouse gases, what is the future for meat eaters, meat producers and the British countryside?
Speakers include Martin Tebbutt of Boathouse Organics, livestock farmer, Michael Fordham, Tony Wardle of Vegetarian campaign group, Viva! And Craig Sams, chair of The Soil Association. Chaired by Joyce Edmond Smith of Brighton and Hove Council’s Sustainability Commission.
