The Green Quote: Roger Moore Named PETA UK ‘Person of the Year’

November 20, 2009 · Print This Article

“I am deeply touched and thrilled to be awarded the PETA U.K. person of the year. When I first saw their video footage on foie gras production three years ago, I felt compelled to do something to help put a stop to that cruel delicacy. I have since become a passionate campaigner against foie gras, and am

most humbled that my passion has helped produce a positive difference in the lives of these animals.”

Sir Roger Moore, less than a week after finally convincing UK supermarket chain Selfridges to stop selling foie gras, on being named the PETA UK “Person of the Year”.
