The letter and the press release note among other things:
Despite the abundance of UN and other scientific studies indicating the devastating effects of producing and consuming animal products, the UN Food Systems Pre-Summit in July prioritized animal agriculture misinformation. The bias and deliberate silencing of science is undeniable as 14-year-old, youth climate and animal activist Genesis Butler, was removed from a pre-summit digital chat session about dairy after she provided evidence contradicting one of the pro-animal agriculture speakers.
