PETA replaces every single ad in Tube station with vegan posters

"I'm ME, Not MEAT. See the Individual – Go Vegan," reads the posters' slogan.
PETA has labelled the ad replacement as a "vegan Tube station takeover" intended to encourage commuters to go vegan in 2017. "Cows, chickens, and pigs are no different from human beings when it comes to feeling pain and fear and valuing their lives," reads a statement released by PETA.
Commuters seem to have responded positively to the posters.
While others have questioned what Clapham Common station is trying to tell them.
