Today is Meatless Monday! Whether you're a vegetarian, an animal rights advocate, or simply someone who loves variety on your plate, incorporating more meatless meals into your repertoire is a great thing to do. Producing meat under the factory farming model has enormous costs in terms of resources, environmental impact, and both human and animal health.
And while many people around the world choose not to consume any meat, there's no reason you can't support more ethical and sustainable farming while remaining omnivorous!
Even reducing your meat consumption by one meal a week can reduce your carbon footprint and water usage. Add another one or two meatless meals, and you can take the money you save and use it to buy local and/or ethically raised meats for the rest of the week.
