DO YOU KNOW... "18% of all global Green Houses Gases are from the consumption of MEAT and DAIRY?"

Recently we came across some statistical facts that shocked us. Alarm bells began to ring loudly inside our being! There was nothing I could do to stop them ringing.

Out of this an idea to launch a graphic and visual campaign to raise public awareness to save the human came to me.

We have been increasingly hearing about saving the whales and saving the tigers and saving the Amazon rain forests for over 20 years now...

This is all good and noble and necessary, but to most people it is too far detached from their busy lifestyles and immediate bubble of existence...

However to save the human implies something far more serious and urgent, it forces one's mind to stop, think and connect the dots. It shocks us into awareness.

Humanity needs to wake up now in large numbers if we are to survive at all.

According to Dr. James Hansen, leading climate scientist with NASA: "we have passed tipping points. We have not passed a point of no return. We can still roll things back, but it is going to require a quick turn in direction."

Some of the recent facts* that we came across:

-- Livestock production is responsible for 18% of global GHG emissions from all human activities.

-- 70% of previously forested land in South America is used for livestock production.

-- At present there are nearly 60 billion animals a year used to produce meat & dairy. The human population is 6.7 billion.


The UN FAO predicts that between 2001 & 2050 the above figure could double.
-- A vegetarian driving a gas guzzling SUV car is more eco friendly than a carnivore riding a bicycle.

**OUR MISSION STATEMENT**
Save the Human campaign is to raise public awareness about these alarming facts in a funky graphic way that appeals to young & older people in an inspirational way that empowers them to not only change their lifestyles but also to pro-actively be part of the solution.

The team with which to manifest this campaign at this moment in time is made up of designers, directors, producers and sponsors all acting selflessly & voluntarily with a strong passion and full-hearted support to see this change happen.

This is an idea whose time has come and therefore it will receive popular support.
It is the time to save us, go vegetarian, go organic now and today.
