One food choice that helps reduce suffering
Small changes to your diet have the power to add up
When it comes to choosing how we eat, small changes can result in massive transformation. We don’t need to be vegan, or even vegetarian to make an impact. Simply by reducing your meat and animal product consumption, you can make a difference for animals, your budget, and the planet.
By simply swapping one meal a week for a meatless meal, you can:
- Reduce your carbon footprint by almost 4kgs
- Reduce precious freshwater and land use
- Reduce animal suffering
Small changes can make a big difference, one by one.
Not only are you saving the planet, but you are saving money too. There is a misconception that a plant-based diet is expensive, but by simply swapping out a meat-centered meal for a meal built around beans, lentils, vegetables, whole grains, and other plant-based proteins, you can actually save money! One meatless day a week means $100 back in your pocket.
Add one more meatless day
Factory farming fuels climate change, pollutes ecosystems and wastes precious resources. The most impactful thing we can do as individuals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is to eat less meat. Need some inspiration to get started? We’ve got you covered.

Help put an end to factory farming
Right now, 50-billion farm animals are born on factory farms – intensive, large-scale farms that prioritize production. Animals are confined in tight spaces, unable to move freely or even lie down comfortably. These animals deserve better. In fact, we all deserve better.
Sign the petition and tell the Federal government “No New Factory Farms in Canada!”
