Climate change poses a massive threat to food security, water availability and biodiversity worldwide (<\/span>IPCC<\/span><\/a>). It is also one of the major causes of the greatest environmental disasters of our century. The production and consumption of animal products contributes massively to climate change, unlike the adoption of a plant regime that helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

On this panel, you will hear from scientist John Stone, a Carleton University professor and environmental geologist, who will discuss the science around climate change and animal agriculture. Karolina Krym, a recent environmental sciences grad from UOttawa, will talk about biodiversity loss. Annie Bernatchez, Vegan Option Canada newest advisor, a doctoral student and social scientist specializing in activism, and Ikram Abdul, a young animal rights activist, who will talk about how to take the action we all need to take to save the planet and the good news around veganism. The moderator, Pamela Tourigny, the festival\u2019s co-founder and a known voice in the vegan community, leads the discussion before welcoming questions from the floor.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
