So… October 1st was World Vegetarian Day, but I missed it. So, I thought I would acknowledge World Vegan Day which is tomorrow, November 1st.
There is just no arguing anymore that reducing your meat intact is one of the best things you can do for the environment. The factory culture of the meat industry has resulted in poorer quality of meat, dead zones in our oceans due to waste material seeping into our water systems, every increasing levels of methane gas, not to mention an atmosphere of animal abuse and cruelty.
So, I ask you to take a pledge to change your eating habits. If you don’t want to go vegan or vegetarian, I understand. But cut down your meat intake. Don’t eat meat tomorrow. And then pick another day next week that you don’t eat meat. Then two more.
The website I link to above… it has a FREE vegan cookbook available. I mean… how much easier could you get!?
here are some links about meat and the environment:
