Kassel 2030 - For a food system without the animal industry
Sunday, 30.08. – 14-18 Clock, Schedule and further information will follow
What is needed for a climate-friendly and solidary Kassel 2030? A new network under the title “Kassel 2030” addresses this question. With this networking meeting, we would like to contribute to this and focus on the animal industry. Because this plays an important role in many current crises: climate crisis, environmental issues, Exploitation of farmers, Workers and animals, and last but not least the emergence and spread of multi-resistant germs and diseases such as corona. And that right here in North Hesse, at the gates of Kassel: in Gudensberg, no 20 km south of Kassel, is Hesse 's largest poultry slaughterhouse Plukon-Group, and a correspondingly large number of factory farms.
At the same time, there is a long and varied history of protesting against the animal industry. Among other things, citizens' initiatives, Local groups of nationwide associations and grass root groups as well as individuals hold rallies, write objections, hold information events and much more.
And yet the animal industry is still growing, while farmers often struggle to survive. We want to contribute to this with this networking meeting, that we exchange information about each other, how we can change that. We want to get to know each other better, learn from our diverse experiences and plans and share our perspectives together.
All interested parties are invited: organized groups as well as individuals; long-time active and "new" without experience; Groups with a focus on nature conservation, Food sovereignty, Animal rights, Climate justice, or labor rights and social issues; Kasselers and people from all over North Hesse.
The main purpose of the meeting is to promote networking, We do not want to arouse any expectations of concrete results. However, we would be happy, if the networking is steady and maybe later there might be joint campaigns or the like - bring your ideas with you.
Write to us to register and if you have any questions by email .
We look forward to seeing you,
Cato, Miri and Fredi
