World Vegan Day '07
Is it Green to Eat Meat? Are livestock Eating the Earth? November 1st is World Vegan Day. See how people are celebrating on the WVD Events Page.
Eating meat, dairy and eggs threatens our planet.
You use much less land and water if you eat crops directly. Animals use most of the protein they eat to live, not 'grow' meat. Meat adds to water shortages, forest clearing, soil damage, use of oil-based pesticides - and climate change.

"By 2050 the world's livestock will be consuming as much as 4 billion people do... when many were doubting whether such human numbers could be fed at all."
