Why Vegan Mondays May Be A Good Idea

Meatless Monday was established to help the environment, because the meat, eggs, and dairy products create 84-percent of food-related greenhouse emissions in the US. According to mnn.com, "A new study suggests that going vegan is the best thing you can do for the planet... Fruits, vegetables, cereals and grains, and nuts and seeds make up only 3 percent of our greenhouse emissions." Even if you don't eat meat, the animals raised to make non-meat animal products take up a lot of resources as well.
