Quite some time ago, Paul McCartney worked closely together with green-oriented organization PETA to produce a video aimed at raising awareness with respect to how animals are abused by farm that raise them in order to provide for the food industry.

As of today, said footage is to be screened during this year's Colorado State Fair, and PETA members hope that, once fair visitors come face to face with these shocking images, they will agree that immediate measures need be taken as soon as possible to end these abuses, and that some of the people watching it might also consider becoming vegetarians.

The organization explains that, “We're the only vendor at the fair not selling anything. Instead, we're just trying to educate the public about a hidden side of agriculture, which is of increasing concern to the nation.”

Furthermore, “We're not peddling cotton candy or corn dogs, just food for thought, and we expect to reach a lot of people, especially teens.”
