Live my life at ChickenOut.tv

Friday, August 21st, 2009

I’ve just been sent the email below.  A campaign well worth supporting.

Over 39 days – the pitifully short life of a typical factory -farmed chicken – we’re spreading the free-range message online and in 11 cities across the UK.

See for yourself just what millions of factory farmed chickens endure, living just 39 days between hatching and slaughter in a typical overcrowded, barren and windowless shed.

How you can help?

Please encourage others to join our campaign for a free-range future:

“We need thousands of signatures to convince supermarkets, farmers, government regulators and anyone else involved in this unacceptable business that they must change”.

We’re hitting the road over the next 39 days to take the free -range message out to  11 locations across the UK. Join us at a town near you and meet the team – and our own free-ranging chicken – as we spread the word.

P.S. Please consider  making a small donation http://www.chickenout.tv/donate-to-the-campaign.html to help cover the cost of taking our message across the UK.
