SIR PAUL MCCARTNEY has penned an open letter to PAMELA ANDERSON,
asking the BAYWATCH star to help promote vegetarianism.
The Beatles legend, who is a staunch animal-rights activist, has
appealed to the actress to lend her name to the cause, after the pair
both became involved in a campaign to help the plight of seals.
Anderson wrote a personal plea to Russian leader Vladimir Putin to ask
the politician to help her ban the slaughter of baby seals in her
native Canada, while MCCartney called on the European Parliament to
implement a ban on the sale of all seal products
And the veteran singer is determined to get Anderson's support in his
bid to turn more people to vegetarianism.
He's penned a two-page letter detailing how bad meat-eating is for the
environment - and is hoping vegetarian Anderson will help him promote
the cause.
MCCartney writes, "Dear Pamela. We are sending this letter because
both of us share a concern for our planet's welfare and hope you will
find the following information of interest. The Fourth Assessment
Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) stated
that 'changes in lifestyle and behaviour patterns can contribute to
climate change mitigation across all sectors.'
"A significant reduction in emissions can be brought about through
changes in diet. The single most effective act is to become vegetarian
or reduce meat consumptoin.
"Unfortunately, with higher incomes, societies are turning to greater
consumption of animal protein, which reduces the availability of food
grains for direct consumption by impoverished human beings.
"We are, therefore, writing this letter not because vegetarianism is a
fad or an emotional issue but because it is a very attractive option
for reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and stabilising the earth's
climate and ensuring food security."

Has McCartney written any songs for the environment?
It is mentioned that this is a protest song about the environment.

It is curious that Paul wrote that letter... after all, Pamela
ANderson has been involved with these causes for quite a while. Was
he asking her to join some specific campaign?.
Maybe they just wanted to get the letter published on newspapers...
