positive and beautiful accessory to a cool, fashionable and streetwise
lifestyle ... and not just part of an alternative minority
Heather Chase is an American model with a genuine compassion towards
all aspects of earth's natural harvest, including of course animal
welfare. She is an inspiring advocate of such qualities clearly
showing that beauty is certainly not just skin deep. She is also

group of models dedicated to promoting cruelty free products and
causes.
All of the issues and guidance in Heather's book "Beauty without
the Beasts" harmonize so closely with the encompassing philosophy
of VeggieGlobal and Looking-Glass, that we feel this publication
deserves a prime place amongst our dotCOMpassionZone Natural World
listings as Editors Choice.

 UTOPIA
TODAY - REALITY TOMORROW - A vegetarian world's
by thirty five authors - a fundraising book
for the European Vegetarian Union
Thirty
five authors - nutritionists, medical doctors, authors of bestsellers,
founders of important organizations, researchers, IT-specialists,
philosophers, sci-fi fans, musicians and talented individuals -
generously contributed to this EVU fundraiser project. The authors
come from a variety of countries, cultural backgrounds and religions
but they all have one thing in common: the conviction that a more
compassionate world is not only possible but inevitable if humanity
is to prosper.

 WE
FEED THE WORLD - The real price of food.
The book accompanying Erwin Wagenhofer's acclaimed
documentary. With a foreword by Germany's former minister of consumer
interests Renate Künast and 36 coloured stills.
"Never before have we lived so well, never before have we been
so healthy, never before have we lived so long. We have everything
we want." Peter Brabeck, CEO Nestlé International.
The Brazilian rainforest is destroyed to make way for soy plantations
that produce animal feed for Europe. Agricultural products, subsidized
by the EU and exported to Africa, undercut prices on local markets.
Everyday the bodies of numerous Africans are retrieved from the
Mediterranean as people are risking their lives trying to escape
the ever-increasing poverty of their native countries ... Erwin
Wagenhofer has traced back our food and visited the people involved
in their workplaces and homes; from the greenhouses of Andalucia
to Breton fishing cutters and the offices of Nestlé's executive
board.
We Feed The World provides an insight into the extensive research
preceding the making of the movie of the same title. It unveils
the background of the global food industry that pretends to act
in the consumers' interest and explains the production process of
milk, vegetables, bread, fish, meat and water. It shows us the harm
done by our consumption, which is often hidden behind the luxuriance
of consumer goods and their advertising.
Alongside environmental concerns, human protagonists are at the
centre of the book ... as producers, consumers and as victims.
Vegetarian
or not, this book (and the film) provides an essential insight
surrounding the gross mismanagement of our earth.
At present, We Feed the World is only available in German.
