Meatless
Posted by admin on June 2, 2009
Go meatless for even a day to help the environment (as well as yourself).
Even if you give up meat for a day or a few days a week it makes a difference…
difference in your health and in the environment.
You’re probably saying that you can’t possibly do that…your kids…your husband…your family…whatever won’t go for it. It’s not that difficult to do without. Try one day a week, then move to a couple days of week….
You can get some vegetarian recipes at these sites:
Want more information on how to be vegetarian or vegan?
Visit GoVeg.com
Pledge to be veg for 30 days here. There’s a video “Chew on this” on that page as well. It’s only 3 minutes but it’s graphic not as graphic as many others but want to give a heads up.
It tells about the benefits and shows some animal cruelty, how animals are slaughtered.
I wish I could find a video that also captured the environmental benefits of not eating meat but haven’t yet as well as video that explains the benefits/differences in eating factory farmed animal and local, free range fed but haven’t been able to locate that yet.
You can read some environmental vegetarianism information on Wikipedia to get some more insight.
You could also visit TheMeatrix.com which has animated videos showing the dark side of the dairy industry.
If you’re local in South Florida (Pembroke Pines area), I do a vegan cooking demo the first Tuesday of the month at Nutrition S’Mart on the SW corner of Pines/Flamingo at 7 pm
