Alicia Silverstone Will Make You 'Juicy'
From the PETA blog:
Alicia Silverstone Will Make You 'Juicy'

Our favorite naked vegan has written a new book, The Kind Diet, which comes out in October. The book is all about living a vegan lifestyle, and Alicia had some great things to say to Health about the benefits of eating cruelty-free:

"You can hear your needs and desires more clearly. You're just more juicy—there's just this lightness that happens."

"Once you're informed, then you can be really gentle and kind to yourself, by giving yourself all the gifts life has to offer—like mental clarity and vitality—all while making the planet better."

"It's weird to be 32 now and feel and look younger. What saved me was my love of animals. Right after I first made the switch to a plant-based diet, people were literally telling me, 'What have you done? You're sparkling.'"

I think I'm going to print myself a T-shirt. It'll either read, "Sparkling, Juicy Vegan" or "Juicy Like Alicia." Decisions, decisions …

3. So will that be a T-shirt made from hemp fibers with a clay dye?

and will her book be made of recycled paper with soy based inks?

Will the hemp, soy, clay and paper be harvested, refined and made without the need for coal and oil?

And will the manufacture of the book be carbon free? And will the T-shirts be assembled via looms that run on alt fuel?

Miss Silverstone, does for the most part, practice what she preaches, but given how fully integrated fossil fuels are in our society, it's amazingly difficult to go walk the walk.
