Vegetarian Star

Woody Harrelson is behind an innovative company that has spent more than a decade perfecting an eco-friendly wood-free paper.

Prairie Pulp & Paper is a Winnipeg-based company co-founded by the vegetarian and environmentalist actor that has created paper made from wheat straw–a product considered field waste by farmers that is often burned.

“I had a meeting with this engineer who is very knowledgeable about the making of non-wood pulp and paper mills,” Harrelson said. “I asked him who was the closest to making this happen in North America.”

Casey Affleck has recorded a new PSA for PETA against dehorning calves in the dairy industry.

“Cows and calves struggle desperately during dehorning,” Casey says in the video. “Thrashing, tossing their heads, rearing up, switching their tails, bellowing, and collapsing to the ground—all signs of severe pain and distress. All these procedures are routinely performed without giving the animals any painkillers whatsoever.”
