In order to reach out to a new audience, PETA launched PETA 2, a social change organization that is the one of largest youth movement in the world. If that is any indication of the future of animal rights, then I would say that the future looks bright. Reform is hard to bring about, especially at an older age. If an individual has spent fifty years of his or her life consuming meat, it is much less likely for them to stop than a thirteen year old who sees the importance of treating animals ethically. PETA 2 is able to take what is to the organization as a whole and make it important to teenagers.
The best way to stop bad behavior among children is to stop the source. If children are raised in a healthy environment, then they will be less likely to adopt aggressive and violent behavior. The same applies to PETA. Young children especially have a strong connection with pets so if taught from a young age to treat all animals with love and care, then they will continue to hold onto those beliefs and instill them into their own children. As I said earlier, children are the future of our world; they will shape the world into what they want to live in. PETA 2's main goal is to show teenagers that animal rights are important and ethical treatment of animals is necessary.
Today, there are many vegetarians and vegans, even college cafeterias are starting to accommodate to those kinds of diets. Compared to just a few years ago, PETA has made strides in animal rights legislation. The future is our hands, and only we have the power to shape it to our desire.
