What politicians are saying about Plant Based Treaty
Zoe Mayer
MP, Germany
Almost 760 million animals live and die in Germany every year for meat production alone. Aside from the unfathomable animal suffering, our meat-heavy diet is a highly relevant driver of climate change. The shift toward a plant-based diet is central to solving many of the problems of our time, including world hunger and the climate crisis.
Dr. Tomasz Anisko MP
Green Party, Poland
Scientists have made it clear: it will not be possible to halt catastrophic climate change without fundamentally changing the way we produce food and without shifting the agriculture sector from animal production to sustainable plant-based systems.
Emma Hurst MP
Animal Justice Party, Australia
Right now millions of animals are facing the terror of the slaughterhouse and our climate crisis is edging closer to the point of becoming irreversible. But it’s not too late for a solution. Now is the time to stand up and speak the truth and speak it loudly. Let’s be relentless. Let’s demand change. Let’s rise fearlessly and speak out against injustice.
Swapnil Avinash Bandekar
Corporator, Shiv Sena, Mumbai, India
I endorse the Plant Based Treaty because we urgently need to put this in the forefront – it’s the future of the planet and all that live here!
Juan Carlos Losada Vargas
Member of the House of Representatives, Colombia
There is no planet B. Our priorities have to change now, we need to act, our house is burning down and we cannot be mere spectators, we have to make the right decisions.
Diego Ibáñez
Environment Commission, Chile
The climate crisis is also political. Today we need to radically change our ways of life collectively, end irrational consumerism that destroys ecosystems, be aware that we are one world with nature and that there is no tomorrow if we do not change politics today.
Eleonora Evi
Membro della Camera dei Deputati italiana
By turning the Plant Based Treaty into reality we can finally make it sustainable, healthy, and just for all living things.
