Go vegan!

#MoveTheDate Solutions

Personal / Community: Personal action

Food sub-categories: Diet

Description: A person who follows a vegan diet produces the equivalent of 50% less carbon dioxide, uses 1/11th oil, 1/13th water, and 1/18th land compared to a meat-lover for their food. This equates to saving 1,100 gallons of water, 45 pounds of grain, 30 sq ft of forested land, 20 lbs CO2 equivalent, and one animal’s life EVERY DAY.
