Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Future of the Beef Sector in the Context of Food Wise 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Charles Stanley-Smith:

This pack was produced for second level schools and it is a discussion document. The cards are a separate issue. They were produced long before this pack, which people do not realise. It is a discussion document. Young people today know more about climate change than any of us of this age. They are well aware of the effects of climate change on their future. We have to promote mechanisms whereby they can save their own future because we have made an appalling job of doing it. Opening up discussion with children who are already aware of most of this is all that is happening.

We are not promoting veganism and never have.
