Philippines<br />

Informing the Youth in High Schools<br />

By Manila News Group (Originally in English)<br />

[Manila] Since January 11, Golden Year 8 (2011), our Association<br />

members from Manila Center have conducted a series of lectures for<br />

students at local high schools on the vegan solution to global warming.<br />

These included Parañaque National, Blessed Luisa and Baclaran<br />

National, with more planned. At the talks, the attentive youth listened<br />

to presentations on the devastating effects of the livestock industry<br />

to humans, our fellow beings and<br />

the planet. In a segment about<br />

respecting the lives of all creatures,<br />

films were shown highlighting<br />

the talents and noble love of<br />

our animal friends. In addition,<br />

information was shared regarding<br />

the many nutritional benefits of the low-emissions, plant-based diet.<br />

Many students shed tears of sympathy when seeing the pitiful plight of the animals. One<br />

expressed his willingness to go vegetarian to help the Earth and his health. After the lecture, the<br />

students participated in a question and answer session while vegan treats were given to the young<br />

audience.<br />

Teachers requested copies of the videos shown to share with more students. Dr. Rosendo<br />

C. Abulog, the principal of Baclaran National High School, expressed his appreciation and<br />

encouraged our Association members to bring the message to other schools in the city.<br />

We thank the teachers and staff at these high schools, for their dedication in helping students<br />

understand how our environment can be protected from climate change. May all bright young<br />

people join the noble path of adopting the Earth-saving diet, facilitating our world into a gentle,<br />

vegan paradise.<br />
