The global Meatless Monday movement continues to gain momentum. Britain, Brazil, Holland, Finland and Taiwan have already launched their programs. Now, we’d like to welcome the wonderful people of Canada and congratulate them as they begin their own Meatless Monday!
The Meatless Monday movement is growing around the world, continent by continent, as we’ve reported. But we’re also growing right here – on our website! This week we introduce a whole range of new features to help you go meatless on Monday: Video, Q&A Corner, Letters To The Editor and Recipe Submissions. Take a look around, then tell us what you think!
The movement we began in 2003 is spreading around the globe! From cities in Europe, and religious institutions in Asia, to city school systems right here in the U.S., people are cutting back on meat one day a week to improve their health and the health of the planet as a whole. It’s an extremely exciting time as we wonder what city, which celebrity, which organization will be next to go meatless? Have you taken the Meatless Monday pledge?
We’re happy to welcome Sir Paul McCartney to the cause! On the same day we launched our new website, the former Beatle, along with his daughters Stella and Mary, kicked off Meat Free Monday in the U.K. Sir Paul has put together an impressive list of celebrities and international organizations working to slow climate change. Now on both sides of “the pond,” people have a compelling reason to start the week meatless.
