Tuscon, Ariz. - Naked behind a banner that reads, "Clean Your Conscience: Go Vegan! 1 lb. of Meat Equals 6 Months of Showers," two PETA beauties will shower together on a sidewalk in Tucson in celebration of Earth Day. The women want consumers to know that the best way to conserve water and to help the environment is to go vegan.
Where: Intersection of E. Pennington Street and S. Stone Avenue, Tucson
When: Thursday, April 21, 11 a.m.
According to the government website drought.com, Tucson is listed as an area facing extreme drought as a result of climate change. Going vegan is an easy way to cut down on personal water usage, and it's the best thing that anyone can do to help stop animal suffering.
"It's impossible to 'go green' without going vegan," says PETA beauty Maya Lilly. "Just by changing their diets, concerned people can help protect the Earth, their own health, and countless animals."
