LETTER: Changing the world one bite at a time
Change the world. When we’re young, it’s something we think we’re going to do. As we get older, we realize that it’s a pretty lofty goal. But maybe it’s not as hard as we think. There are small things each of us can do in our daily lives that can make a huge difference in the world, starting with what we put on our plates. Millions of people around the world are making that difference by participating in Meatless Monday, a campaign that encourages people to go meat-free one day a week to improve their health, the environment and animal welfare. As we approach Earth Day, there’s no better time than now to try it out.
