Thanksgiving Perspective on KQED Radio

[Guest guest]

11/20/03

 

I woke up Thursday morning to a wonderful piece on

Thanksgiving on KQED radio 88.5 FM " Perspectives " by

Colleen Patrick Goudreau. She was saying how over 300

million turkeys are needlessly slaughtered for this

festive holiday and how many wonderful alternatives

there are for the holiday meal as we all know. The

piece airs again Thursday 11/20 at 11:32 pm and again

on Sunday 11/23 at 8:37 am. If you can, it would be

great if as many people in the group could write to

the producer and thank him for airing a perspective

that is animal friendly. His name is Mark Trautwein

and his e-mail is mtrautwein. Thanks.

Thanks, Ron. Mark has gotten some positive emails (and one ridiculously written

complaint). He sent me a few he received, and it's really cute when the email

address reveals that it's obviously from a veg*n/animal rights person.

 

Just wanted to clarify what Ron wrote (I'm a stickler for detail): 300 million

birds are killed each year in the US for human consumption; of this number, 45

million are for Thanksgiving.

 

Thanks, Ron. You rock!
