2011 is well and truly upon us now, and Uncaged has exciting plans to help animals in the year ahead! One of our greatest challenges is to ensure the European Union honours its commitment to banning animal-tested cosmetics from sale in 2013. To postpone the 2013 deadline would be a massive betrayal of public opinion and defenceless animals, leaving the EU’s reputation in tatters.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This isn’t just a European issue, because a ban here will have a huge impact on animal testing for cosmetics in the wider world, such as the USA. If companies like Procter & Gamble cannot sell their animal-tested products in the EU that will be a massive incentive to stop their gratuitous cruelty and invest meaningful sums in developing superior non-animal alternatives to all cosmetics toxicity tests.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Uncaged is empowering citizens to urge their Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) to defend the 2013 ban, and now a huge battle is brewing at the EU. If we win, this will be one of the biggest advances for animals in human history. So if you live in the EU, please urge your Member of the European Parliament to support the scheduled ban.<\/b><\/p>\n

If you live outside the EU, you can still urge your Government to support the EU proposal and consider introducing their own ban on animal-tested cosmetics.<\/p>\n

ACTIONS<\/b><\/p>\n

The responsibility for this decision is shared between the European Commission, the European Parliament and the national governments of the member states. At the moment, we need to focus on asking MEPs to do their utmost to protect the 2013 ban: please send this template letter<\/u><\/a> to your MEP(s)<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n
