A PLant based diet

A vegan diet excludes the use of animal based food products. Instead, plant based food items are made with a combination of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and other nutritious ingredients.

HealthResearch suggests that a vegan diet improves heart health, helps prevent cancer, and lowers the risk of type 2 diabetes.

EnvironmentAccording to the UN, 14.5% of manmade carbon emissions come from farming livestock. This is equivalent to the emissions of every car, train, ship, and aircraft on Earth. |
FOOD SECURITYThe amount of agriculture resources on Earth is limited. It is estimated 1.4 billion more people could be fed if just people in the US gave up beef, pork, and poultry. It is much more efficient to allocate agricultural resources toward growing food for a plant based diet.
