Livestock are responsible for nearly 15 percent of the greenhouse gases that cause global warming-- that’s more than cars, planes and all other forms of transport put together. Growing their feed is responsible for forest loss, especially in the Amazon. Livestock also bring a whole host of other resource, chemical, pollution, disease and cruelty issues.
By skipping steak or burgers just one day a week for a year, you can remove 595 pounds of CO2. That’s like saving 30 gallons of gasoline! Check out these delicious recipes or follow #MeatlessMondays to make Meatless Mondays become a way of life in your household.
