Stop the advertisement of red and processed meat in the UK!


Stop the advertisement of red and processed meat in the UK!
The Issue
Whether it’s on the television, in magazines, on billboards or on the radio, we can see red and processed meats being advertised.
For many, the advertisement of dead animal flesh is disturbing; yet others don’t budge at the sight of it. I’m calling out those of you who care, to help stop these health-damaging products being paraded around in the media. Not only is it barbaric - but it’s disrespectful to the animal it came from. I’m sure we’d all think differently if it were our flesh.
A lot of people don’t realise how carcinogenic and cholesterol-soaked meat is. Another point to remember here is that the World Health Organisation puts red and processed meat in the same category as polonium and tobacco! These are type 2 carcinogens! For the sake of people’s health - we should not be advertising such products!
Sign this petition so that something can be done about these adverts that promote the items that cause such terrible illnesses. You wouldn’t advertise cigarettes... so why advertise animal products?
For more information about why animal products are bad for you, I can assure you there is plenty of information on the internet. Thank you
