Much debate has followed after a new decree was issued by the French
government stating that there will be no meat-free days in French
schools and that all students will have to eat meat if they want lunch
at school, as taking a packed lunch is not an alternative because they
are also banned. Sir Paul McCartney along with other celebrities are
exposing this injustice. He said, "The French Government's recent decree
effectively enforcing the consumption of animal products in public
institutions is a backward step for France. It goes against the Charter
of Fundamental Rights of the European Union by prohibiting individuals'
right to express their beliefs."

It seems unbelievable that in this day and age the choice to
alleviate suffering, restore the health of the planet and bring healing
to our world is being taken away in France. Hopefully, the French
government will realize what a backward decision they've made. They
should not only allow veg options at school but also recognize the
benefits of a plant-based diet for all of God's Creation.
