Secretary Pal Thorbjonsen writes: There are at present only a few people involved in our society and as a result we are focussing on spreading and producing litterature, as this requires relatively little work and effort, but produces more permanent results. Our financial situation is also quite limited and limiting. In addition to publishing our magazine 'Vegetarnytt', we distribute a selection of booklets in Norwegian (recipe collections, how-to-guides, texts on ethically-based vegetarianism), leaflets, etc. We have also received very positive coverage in the media. Since June we have also presented our own web pages (in Norwegian only) at: http://www.geocities.com/ RainForest/7406.
