Lea Michele PETA
Lea Michele is starring in her 2nd PETA ad that draws attention to horse-drawn carriages in New York city.
A group called NYCLASS is calling for the complete ban of horse-drawn carriages and instead replacing them with green replica electric-hybrid cars. Not only would this solve the odor problem that the horse stables give off (which some stories include filling up a school cafeteria with the funk and giving children rashes and other health problems from airborne manure particles), the cars are also able to keep pace with other vehicles on the street, reducing the chance for accidents. And finally, the horses will get rest.
“Imagine for a moment that you’re forced to do hard physical labor all day, seven days a week–whether it’s sweltering hot or freezing cold outside,” Lea says. “At the end of the day, instead of relaxing on an easy chair or sleeping in a comfortable bed, you are locked in a tiny closet all night long. That’s what it’s like for horses who are forced to pull carriages in New York City.”
“Don’t get taken for a ride. Please boycott horse-drawn carriages.”
A video of Michele with footage from horse stables can be seen below.
