World Day Against McDonalds Oct.16th

October 16th 2009 is the 25th Worldwide Anti-McDonalds day. McDonalds exploits animals, people and the environment. This is a protest against the promotion of junk food, the unethical targeting of children, exploitation of workers, animal cruelty, damage to the environment and the global domination of corporations over our lives. Animal farming produces 18% of global greenhouse gases and as McDonald's is the world largest user of beef, they contribute significantly to this total. The animals used in McDonalds burgers have little choice in their brutal deaths - help us educate the public that they have a choice in what they consume and where they consume.
What: World Day Against McDonalds

When: Friday, Oct 16th from 6pm - 8pm
