It isn't exactly that easy to ask your common American to eat healthier---as far as they are concerned, they are. That's why Meatless Mondays has come up with a better alternative. By pledging your Mondays "meat-free", what you are actually doing is pledging to try vegan-based meals and recipes out in hopes of you adding it you your daily diet. One day a week is all they ask.
"Meatless Monday is an international campaign that encourages people to cut out meat on Mondays to improve their health and the health of the planet. Reducing meat consumption by 15% (the equivalent of one day a week) lessens the risk of chronic preventable illness and has a strong positive impact on the environment. MeatlessMonday.com offers weekly meat-free recipes, articles, tips and news."
