Overall it might not make a lot of difference, but it's one more step on Greece's long journey. What it means is that some councils might take action when they would not have before. It's up to citizens to continue to raise the pressure. Greece is changing and people like Bryan and Christina have raised the pressure on their council and produced some spectacular publicity and I think some tangible results, if not enough. To be fair animal welfare is not Greece's most pressing concern at the moment but should certainly be higher on the list. One factor among many others that drives animal cruelty is poverty and exploitation of animals. Even so, there is still plenty of animal cruelty in "rich" and "animal loving" countries like Britain. If people keep plugging away more ordinary Greeks will get the message and even some politicians.
