#Powerplant provides added insight into the link between climate change and meat consumption, a topic that Marianne Thieme was the first politician to address in the climate documentary ‘Meat the Truth’ in 2007, an issue that has become even more pertinent since then. Moby:
“Vegans have found a way to transition from a small activist group to a mainstream movement. It is the new normal.”
