Paul McCartney takes campaign to Brussels (From Congleton Guardian)
Sir Paul McCartney is to take his "meat-free" campaign to Brussels next month as part of a European Parliament conference on the environment.
The former Beatle will urge people to cut back on eating meat as part of the battle against climate change.
He is attending a "Global Warming and Food Policy: Less Meat = Less Heat" hearing of MEPs and climate change and food experts just days before marathon UN climate change negotiations begin in Copenhagen.
Sir Paul accepted an invitation from European Parliament vice president and Tory MEP Edward McMillan-Scott, who will chair the event.
UN climate change chief Dr Rajendra Pachauri will also be there. All three men do not eat meat.
