Vegetarian Star

“I started a tree-planting project in hopes of not only offsetting the carbon footprint but also cooling the planet and helping various communities. I also planted peaches to empower humans to care for the planet.”

“I’m taking further steps to reduce energy consumption in my home, and am speaking out more often about reducing, reusing, recycling, reburbishing, reapplying, repairing — doing everything we can to live in delicate balance.”

“Well, people have been telling me for years: “You’ve got to do a cookbook,” because they know how much I love to cook and spend time in the kitchen and cook up tasty meals without a lot of extravagant affair. But, it was a hard thing because I’ve had a bunch of other people asking for years about a running book. So it was like, how can I combine the two of them, and give something for everyone?”

“It can be disheartening because I’ll be asked to do campaigns a lot. I’m so passionate that I’ll put everything into it. You see other campaigns where celebrities jump on board but animal rights issues is something where people feel they can’t really tread. It’s not even about being a vegetarian. It’s about having a bit of empathy for what these animals are going through. I do think celebrities could do more.”

—Leona Lewis on her animal rights work. Lewis has volunteered her time, face and name to animal advocacy organizations such  as the World Society for the Protection of Animals, Cleveland Armory Black Beauty Ranch and Humane Society International.

My wish is that in the next three years, a real, real food revolution will happen. My uncompromised belief is that, whether we are British, American, or any dude on the planet, we can make great decisions if we are informed properly. That gives me hope.”

“I’ve given up on governments. But I have endless hope and faith in people once they are given knowledge and skills. I’ve certainly seen all over the world in many different communities that, once people have a few skills and confidence, they make different choices in the grocery store. Once they make different choices in the grocery store — and on the Main Street fast-food restaurants — then companies will be forced to serve a higher quality offer. That’s when the real change happens.”

—Jamie Oliver, who recently created “Food Revolution Day,” a holiday celebrated this month that encouraged people around the globe to cook without processed ingredients.

“I wouldn’t hurt a cat or a dog or a chicken or a cow. And I wouldn’t ask someone else to hurt them for me. That’s why I’m a vegetarian. So next time you’re at the grocery store or at a restaurant, think about where your food comes from. And remember that you have a choice. Won’t you please join me in making the kind one?”

—Peter Dinklage, in his pro-vegetarian testimonial for PETA. View an extended interview with Dinklage on his motivations for going veg, his thoughts on horse-drawn carriages and more below.
