WeWork is going meat-free and taking every one of its employees with it.

The startup cited environmental concerns in announcing its immediate company-wide ban on meat. In an email sent Thursday, WeWork cofounder Miguel McKelvey told his 6,000 or so employees the company will no longer serve meat at employee events or reimburse them for meals that include red meat, poultry and pork.

It's a bold move for the real estate behemoth believed to be worth $20 billion -- and the most assertive in a series of recent steps large companies have taken to promote sustainability.

I’m really getting tired of wealthy Liberal a$$holes deciding that their wealth gives them the ability to tell others how to live. Soros, Heyer, and this jerk McKelvey are the top of the list.

Kinda kills the urge for a company bar-bee-cue huh? I can see it now “Sorry boss I’d like to come to the pic nik but we got friends and T-bones coming over”. Nothing beats a well grilled piece of dead cow. IMHO
