In Hesse, of all places. In Kassel. On Earth Day. No meat. Our YouTuber Thunderbeard, a native of Hesse, is horrified. He pushes his breakfast board with the black pudding roll aside and takes a closer look. WASDOLOS?
There will soon be “Earth Day” in Kassel – it not only exists there, but it is an international day of action to critically question our consumer behavior and point out the associated environmental problems and climate change.
The organizer writes about this on their own website :
Earth Day in Kassel is the largest and most colorful event in Germany to mark International Earth Day on April 22nd ( Earth Day ).
Ultimately, this festival is also about questioning consumption and drawing attention to climate change. That's nothing objectionable so far, Thunderbeard thinks. But is that why you throw out the whole sausage?

So at least the lack of sausage at the festival is not a fake. The only question is, with what kind of vehemence should this be discussed?
A crucial point for the “lockout” of meat is, quite simply, the location where Earth Day is celebrated in Kassel this year. Since the festival will be a little smaller this year, the organizers unfortunately had to cancel some stands this year. They have just found a criterion for which stands they should cancel and which they should not. The meat.
You can argue about it, but in the end you can just go somewhere else. Or you can go and not eat meat for an afternoon.
And now everyone is discussing Kassel
Kassel and the meatless festival. On the one hand, the protest actually sounds silly, because if you break it down, many people's statement is: “If there's no sausage, then I won't go there!” On the other hand, you can also understand it, because in principle it is also a bit about preserving personal freedom in your own consumer behavior.
However, at the moment you can only observe one thing: everyone is getting upset. Media, readers. And perhaps the sales representative for the Kassel area of a medium-sized meat and sausage retailer from Peckeloh, since he can't sell anything for the Earth Day celebration. But just maybe.
