Positive veggie PR

Contributed by Sergio

Do you have any ideas of positive veg PR? (Or maybe you have seen it anywhere?)

Because now all PR I see is negative, it shows dead and dying animals, and people don't wish to be considered guilty of it. So they block themselves from these ads, and it impedes them getting positive messages of becoming veggie.

You can post your opinion as comments to this article or as replies to this forum thread

Why to do this? Leaflets should link animals to meat. So people will see what they eat.

By the same token, all the PR about drugs and tobacco is negative because, like meat and dairy, they are bad for human health (not to mention animal health!). I don't really see a problem with the current pro-AR PR. Although I have seen COK give out vegan food in front of murder king and mcdeadalds. I don't even consider this protesting.

It is good idea! :)
And how it worked. Have been any results of giving out vegan food?

Check out a review of one. It apparently went really well. They always seem to get some people to think about the subject - usually for the first time. BTW, they call these events Feed-ins.

We had discussion on this point on IRC. And we agreed at one point:
In the cities people don’t know (or understand) where meat is from. And for them linking animals with meat will be efficient. But there are rural regions where most people rise and kill animals by themselves. And it will be good think to make positive image of animals for them. So they will like animals and will think that it is very bad to kill them. Also it will be a good publicity for children.
We found one idea: on leaflet is showed animal and some danger for this animal (hunter or butcher), so subconsciously they will think that this animal can be saved. And they will start thinking how.
If you have any ideas on how to improve this idea, or have any other ideas please help us.
