Environment Campaign
Our environment campaign focuses on the
ways that vegetarianism can help reduce your environmental impact.
By not
eating meat you can
help reduce
greenhouse gas emissions, help conserve water and also help land
conservation.
As the world’s population continues to grow, our requirement for food will also increase. Raising cattle is one of the most damaging components of agriculture. They cause the most environmental damage of any non-human species through over-grazing, soil erosion, desertification and tropical deforestation for ranches, in addition to their gaseous emissions and manure products.
Diet is an important tool in working to achieve environmental sustainability. To find out more click here or to order free campaign resources click here
Fish Campaign
Whichever way you cut it vegetarians don't eat fish! Fish may not appear as cute and cuddly as young lambs, however they do feel pain and they do suffer. The fishing industry is responsible for some of the most environmentally damaging practices affecting our seas and oceans today.
Fishing is threatening the world’s populations of cetaceans (whales, dolphins and porpoises) and overfishing has left species including tuna, plaice, monkfish and cod in danger. Fishing also affects other wildlife such as seals, birds, turtles, mink and otters, along with coral reefs and aquatic plants. The worldwide demand for fish continues to rise and its impact is getting worse. To find out more click here or to order free campaign resources click here
