'Succession' actor James Cromwell railed against Starbucks' vegan milk surcharge during a Tuesday PETA demonstration that shut down a Manhattan shop.
The protest continued until New York police officers arrived at the scene and threatened to arrest those who wouldn’t leave. Cromwell eventually unglued his hand and that of another demonstrator at the location before the shop was briefly shut down,But he got in plenty of digs before that and detailed how “producing cow’s milk generates three times more greenhouse gases than producing vegan options.
“Stop this practice of charging customers more for something that should be available to everybody, that saves the planet, that does not harm animals and will make a difference. Your understanding this and your support is essential,” Cromwell said. “We’re here to bring attention to the damage that charging extra money does for animals and the planet and the people living on the planet.
“We’re not trying to cause too much trouble. We’re just trying to be here at Starbucks so that they know that this charge on vegan milks is not right. And it’s bad for the planet, it’s bad for the animals,” the organizer said.during an NBA game in Minnesota when a woman glued her hand to the court to protest factory egg farms backed by Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor. It’s unclear whether the woman was affiliated with PETA.
