Lecture, Video Screening, Classroom Activity Date/Time: ASAP Location: High School Earth Science and General Classroom Features: A large part of the curriculum in both general science and earth science focuses on environmentalism. Being a vegan and environmentalist myself, I stronly encourage my high school students to think for themselves rather than eat meat and dairy products simply because tradition and their parents say they should. I find that the youth is the perfect target to inspire and educate regarding matters that FARM brings to the public's attention. I would love to present a days worth, if not a weeks worth of material to my students regarding environmentalism and its ties to factory farming in particular. Thank you so much for the work you all do at FARM and for inspiring me to help put this information out there to the young people who have the potential to change the world!

Leafleting / Literature Distribution, Classroom Activity Date/Time: Location: SUNY Ulster Features: I am a member of the SUNY Ulster veterinary technician club, and I want to distribute information regarding the plight of farm animals--it's so overlooked. For example, the vet tech club was planning a "pet expo", yet invited "Brook's BBQ" to come as a fund-raising event...the intention of the vet tech club is to help animals, and promote animal welfare; yet, they overlooked the fact that serving factory-farmed meat to fund their "animal welfare" programs was entirely hypocritical. My goal is to "open their eyes" to animal suffering. I would like to have an event at my school to promote animal welfare beyond cats and dogs.
