A man with an appalling traffic history was able to keep his licence but lost his car after he was busted hooning near the Bundaberg Ring Road. Stewart Geoffrey Collins pleased guilty to the offence in Bundaberg Magistrates Court and was fined $600 with a conviction recorded. Marcus Aaron Mallyon pleaded guilty after being busted making smoke and noise at the intersection of Duffy Street and River Terrace. Police prosecutor Senior Constable Tina Bland told the court Mallyon did a number of turns in the streets which left burn outs and rubber tyre marks on the road. He then drove off, heavily revving the engine.

Media can give the impression that only younger generations are vegan, and while there are plenty of Millennials and Gen-Zers going plant-based, being vegan is trending at all ages.

As we approach the New Year, keep these stories in mind as you plan goals and aspirations for your own vegan life.
