Animals Matter To Queen Guitarist Brian May
Written by Vegetarian Star on August 18th, 2009 in Animal Issues, Male Musicians.
Vegetarian Queen rocker Brian May recently took the opportunity to give animal rights a promo on his website.
The guitarist praised The World Society of the Protection of Animals (WSPA) Animals Matter To Me campaign.
“Animals Matter To Me represents the biggest ever global animal welfare initiative, linking the entire animal welfare movement with ONE STRATEGIC GOAL: global recognition that animals are sentient beings, capable of feeling pain and suffering,” writes May.
The goal of “Animals Matter To Me” is to get 10 million signatures to be handed to government officials around the world, urging for a Universal Declaration on Animal Welfare at the United Nations.
Hey, if you can play guitar in a band that spent more weeks on the UK album charts than the Beatles or Elvis Presley, helping to round up 10 million signatures should be no problem!
