VEGETARIAN TEEN MAGAZINE ONLINE

 

This week saw the launch of a new website aimed at educating and providing

support for teenagers who have decided to adopt a vegetarian or vegan

lifestyle.

 

Vegetarian Teen Online Magazine (http://www.vegetarianteen.com) also offers

parents advice and information regarding the healthful, life-giving diet

their children have chosen. Since much of the site's content is " by teens,

for teens, " it is also a place where young people can publish their thoughts

and experiences relating to vegetarianism.

 

There has been a dramatic increase in the number of people, especially

teenagers, who have turned to vegetarian or vegan lifestyles. Computers and

obtaining information from the Internet has also become very popular.

Melanie Wilson, owner/editor of both Vegetarian Teen Online Magazine and

Vegetarian Baby and Child Magazine (http://www.vegetarianbaby.com), saw an

opportunity to offer support and education through the World Wide Web.

SYDNEY CITY COUNCIL GIVES THUMBS DOWN TO NEW ZOO

 

Katherine Greiner, speaking on behalf of Sydney City Council, described the

proposed Darling Harbour zoo development as a disgrace, and council voted

unanimously to oppose it.

 

This does not mean that it won't go ahead though, as the final decision

rests with the State Government.
