Bryan Adams, Pamela Anderson Canadian Green Superstars

Vegetarian Star — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 20:29:37 +0000

Canada’s flag may be red and white, but the number of eco-friendly celebrities that hail from the country make it one of the greenest places on Earth.

In celebration of Earth Day, Huffington Post Canada has compiled a slideshow of 25 of the greenest celebrities from our neighbors up north.

Singer Bryan Adams and actress Pamela Anderson were two obvious picks, given the fact both stars promote a plant-based lifestyle.

“Vegan, singer and photographer Bryan Adams is another celebrity behind PETA’s campaign on animal rights and promoting a meatless lifestyle,” the article reads.

“Long-time PETA activist and vegetarian Pamela Anderson has stripped for ad campaigns, worn a lettuce bra and starred in anti-fur video campaigns.”

Living meatless may be the best environmentally friendly act you can commit. Consider how much we would save the planet if everyone in the U.S. went vegetarian for one day:

It would be the equivalent of saving 70 million gallons of gas–enough to fuel all the cars of Canada and Mexico.
Greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 1.2 million tons of CO2, as much as produced by all of France.
100 billion gallons of water, enough to supply all the homes in New England for almost 4 months.

Bar Refaeli Got A Mouthful Of Fur Lies At Bel Air Photo Shoot

Vegetarian Star — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 22:48:34 +0000

There’s nothing worse that finishing a shoot for a magazine in what you thought was faux fur, only to learn later it was the real thing.

Actually, there could be worse things. Pamela Anderson could come after you for it.

Poor Bar Refaeli learned a lesson when she received a letter from the former Baywatch star, scolding her for posing in a spread for Bel Air Clothing Company in real fur.

“You probably weren’t aware that numerous undercover investigations have revealed that foxes, minks, coyotes, and rabbits—and even cats and dogs—are bludgeoned, genitally electrocuted, and often skinned alive for their pelts,” Anderson wrote in the letter.

Refaeli took to Twitter to defend herself, insisting she is against real fur and was told she was wearing the artificial version.

“I think its time 2 get it straight! i’m against fur! the truth of the matter is that on the shoot day i was told the fur is FAKE!”

Meatless Mouthful–Pamela Anderson’s Vegetarian Secret For Energy

Vegetarian Star — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 19:41:20 +0000

“Good Viking genes, being vegetarian and having rowdy dogs and kids definitely keep me in shape. Not eating meat gives me the energy I need to keep up with work, family and travel – I’m very active.”

–Pamela Anderson, on what keeps her energy levels up. Anderson has recently spoken out on the European Union’s deadline to ban animal-tested cosmetics. “I hope the EU doesn’t turn back the clock and sticks with the original deadline,” Pamela told the UK edition of OK! Magazine. “Or I may have to stop wearing cosmetics and that would be cruelty to humans.”

Vivienne Westwood Gets Rain Forest Protection From Pamela Anderson

Vegetarian Star — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 00:42:26 +0000

As a lady who has it all, what else would you like for your birthday? The moon? The sun? The stars? How about 70 acres of protected rainforest?

In honor of fashion designer Vivienne Westwood‘s 70th birthday, Pamela Anderson has sponsored 70 acres of land in Peru through rainforest charity Cool Earth.

“I’m really excited to support Cool Earth and give Vivienne such an incredible rainforest gift,” Anderson said. “She is one of my favourite people.”

The sponsorship allows Cool Earth to prevent trees in the area from being used as timber or the land being used for cattle ranching by working with people in the community.

The area of land marked with Westwood’s name is shown below.

Rainforests not only provide breathtaking beauty, they are an important home to both animals and plants. They also replenish soil and water, aid in stopping floods and provide shade to the lifeforms that live within them.

Wouldn’t one look good with your name on it?

Pamela Anderson Enjoys Buddha Burgers Between Fur Activism In Tel Aviv

Vegetarian Star — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 22:46:08 +0000

Pamela Anderson is known for giving props to local food when visiting a country, and her recent visit to Tel Aviv was no different.

The actress was welcomed by several animal rights activists carrying tombstones that read, “Thou Shall Not Kill Animals.”

“There are a lot of really great animal rights [activists] here, really good, sympathetic people and I think they’re making a lot of progress even with passing this fur bill, which is a landmark bill and it’s very important for the rest of the world,” Anderson told The Jerusalem Post. “It just seems like everyone is very passionate [in Israel]. There’s not a lot of small talk – people really talk about important things and it’s really incredible the people that I’ve met. We have great conversations.”

Anderson has been outspoken on initiating a fur ban in Israel. She called Israel progressive because it has no fur farms and urged leaders to step forward on such as ban, that has been discussed but shot down by some Hasidic Jews who wear fur hats and other attire on some occasions. A poll cited most Israelis believing killing animals for fur as wrong and supporting a ban on it.

While in Tel Aviv, Anderson stopped by Buddha’s Burgers, a vegan restaurant home to Shwarma Seitan, Seitan Shnitzel and of course, the Buddha vegan burger.
