  • After accepting the Albert Schweitzer award at Last Chance for Animals' 2017 Annual Gala, Philip Wollen delivered a phenomenal speech about the egregious treatment of animals and the destructive ramifications of their plight. The compassionate philanthropist described the impact that our food choices have on the lives of billions- human and nonhuman alike. Wollen left the audience in awe as he thoughtfully articulated the harrowing reality of this atrocity and effectively conveyed the power that each of us hold to create meaningful change for animals.

      @Bruno56 yes but there weren't nearly as many Neanderthals and cavemen as there are people today living today... and did you know that a cow will eat more food than it will ever give. It acts just like a penny which costs more to make than it is worth. They also produce more methane and greenhouse gasses than cars do. Eating cows and pigs and meat isnt about curbing hunger or sating your appetite, its about feeding your greed and not listening to the facts when they are plainly in front of you.

It enhanced my capabilities as I would have never imagined especially in matter of spirituality and regeneration. It made me understand that without Animals Freedom and liberation there can never be on this Planet Peace and Love. I Wish there were billions of people like you to create that world of my Dreams.

    When your friendly neighbour that drives your catatonic daughter to her daycare and back cause it's on his way to work,
    turns out to have been raping her for all those years, most sane people wouldn't look away without taking any action and
    making some big changes.. but this is exactly what most people choose to do when it comes to other living creatures

      I have thought about this alot, Danielle. It can be done. We could crowdfund buying a country, but I came to the conclusion that it would be counterproductive. We need to be among the flesh eaters so we can rehabilitate them. We are actually in a perfect situation if you think how christian missionaries (I am not religious btw) in the olden days had to travel far and wide to spread their "word". All we need to do is walk out our front doors and we are surrounded by them.
