Go Vegan If You Can, Go Vegetarian If You Cant, An..

Go vegan if you can, go vegetarian if you can’t, and if that is still too challenging for you, cut down your meat and dairy consumption as much as possible, starting with 50%.



What are you eating this weekend?

Just remember, industrial meat impacts our planet in ways that no longer can be ignored.

Animal farming releases as much greenhouse gasses as all cars, trains, ships and planes combined – accelerating the climate emergency, and bringing us wildfires, floods and extreme droughts.

We have to pull the brakes now – less meat, less heat, more nature!

😥 Meat and Deforestation – The Facts:

🥩 Agricultural expansion is responsible for 80% of global deforestation.
🥩 Commercial agriculture is estimated to be responsible for at least 40% and up to 70% of all deforestation across the tropics.
🥩 Pasture for livestock and cropland for soya production have been identified as the two main drivers of deforestation worldwide.

🌲 Two-thirds of the world’s land-based species are found in forests.
🌲 Forests store massive amounts of carbon in their living parts, litter and soils – equivalent to some 90 years of greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels.
🌲 Deforestation accounts for over a tenth of global carbon emissions.
🌲 The world loses nearly one soccer field of forests every 2 seconds.
