Stella McCartney Kids Leo Sweatshirt

Stella McCartney has launched her first kids collection and is allowing child fashionistas with a techy side to enjoy the fashions via an iphone application, available from itunes for free. A percentage of sales from the Leo sweatshirt, shown above, will benefit the McCartney family Meat-Free Monday campaign, aimed to encourage people to eat vegetarian one day a week to reduce the impact of meat consumption on the environment.

The Collection: Keeping in Stella’s green ethics, the clothing line for boys and girls, aged newborn to 12 years, features modern styles crafted from organic cotton and absolutely no fur. According to ChildMode, every piece of clothing has been given a different child’s name, such as the Lara, an organic baseball shirt with stripes and floral prints.

“I wanted this first collection to include basic pieces that are comfortable and that address a child’s needs, without sacrificing the fun and carefree elements,” Stella said.

You know exactly who you are.

You never went vegetarian or vegan because you hated the taste of meat. The smell of Thanksgiving turkey still makes you salivate and walking past the steakhouse gives you fantasies that make you feel a bit naughty.

However, there’s no reason to feel guilty about a craving you never give into. And because you know there’s such an abundance of fake meat out there, you never will.

Stella McCartney "Horse In Daisies"

Stella McCartney has designed another article of clothing to benefit the McCartney family Meat-Free Monday campaign, designed to encourage people to eat vegetarian once a week to lessen the impact raising livestock for food has on the environment.

This t-shirt features a print from Stella’s mother, the late Linda McCartney, who was also a champion of vegetarianism and more than likely responsible for the family adopting the ethics.

This Dish is Vegetarian reports the shirts will be launched this month in Stella’s store in Bruton Street, London. It is also available online for $215. A portion of the proceeds will support the Meat Free Monday.

Ed Begley Jr. has an interview with Low Density Lifestyle that discusses his upcoming book, his motivations for going vegetarian and what he thinks about Meatless Monday initiatives.

Highlights from the two part discussion:

M.W.: The United Nations issued a report a few years back stating that meat consumption did more to affect climate change than all cars, trucks and planes combined. This lead Paul McCartney to start the Meat Free Monday campaign, urging people to not eat meat one day a week. Do you think not eating meat one day a week is enough to help halt global warming?
E.B.: No, but it’s a step in the right direction. I always encourage people to expand their green diet. It’s a good choice for the environment and for your health.

The Hard Rock Cafe in London is initiating Paul McCartney‘s Meat Free Monday campaign in its restaurant, beginning June 7, and the change coincides with McCartney’s UK tour, according to Gigwise.

The menu will feature choices like Linda McCartney’s brand of veggie burgers and several drinks. According to a PR rep from the Hard Rock Cafes, the Linda McCartney veggie burgers were launched there when the brand was first created.

McCartney’s motivation behind Meat Free Mondays is get people thinking about the relationship between meat consumption and the environment.

“Having one designated meat free day a week is actually a meaningful change that everyone can make, that goes to the heart of several important political, environmental and ethical issues all at once,” McCartney said.
