Photo by Kevin Lysaght Weaving through the New York City streets on their vintage Vespa scooter, with colorful vegan and abolition themed tattoos on their bodies, Dan Piraro and Ashley Lou Smith bust all sorts of myths. Most importantly, beyond being articulate, attractive and humorous, Dan and Ashley show that being an animal activist can include style, creativity and intelligence. Dan Piraro is the mastermind behind the popular syndicated cartoon Bizarro, featured in newspapers across the country, as well as in Satya's pages. With jokes about fur, circuses, vivisection, fishing and farmed animals, Bizarro is bringing animal issues to the daily papers. In his newest book, Bizarro and Other Strange Manifestations of the Art of Dan Piraro (Abrams), an illustrated retrospective of Dan's work, you'll notice his art has gotten more political, with a greater focus on animal rights and the environment in recent years. This has earned him accolades and awards, including multiple plaques from the prestigious Genesis Awards. A major influence on Dan's work is his wife Ashley Lou Smith, previously a freelance activist for Farm Sanctuary, PETA, COK and HSUS. She currently teaches humane education classes to public school students in New York, and spends much of her time touring the country with Dan, as he gives presentations and stand-up comedy routines at various venues, or at Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary, where she and Dan are founding board members.

Located in the breathtaking Pamohi area of Guwahati, Akshar is a very unique school which takes just plastic waste when it comes to its fees! Yes, you read that right. This eco-friendly school lets the little kids connect with the Mother Nature in a thoughtful and amazing way. Parmita Sarma, the co-founder of the school stated "We wanted to start a free school for all, but stumbled upon this idea after we realized a larger social and ecological problem brewing in this area. I still remember how our classrooms would be filled with toxic fumes every time someone in the nearby areas would burn plastics. Here it was a norm to burn waste plastic to keep warm. We wanted to change that and so started to encourage our students to bring their plastic waste as school fees". The school is a brainchild of Parmita and Mazin Mukhtar and they together founded the school in the month of June 2016.
