NO! EATING MEAT IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU
No, eating cows is not good for you or the planet (or, obviously for the cow!). In fact, it is one of the most detrimental things that we do to our own bodies and to Mother Earth, as well as to our hungry sisters and brothers across the planet, Today on World Vegetarian Day, Pujya Sadhviji reminds us that our one meal can make a huge difference and that with each meal, we have the power to choose consciously and compassionately.
✨ Did you know that the meat industry is the leading cause of global warming, and one of the largest contributors to deforestation, water scarcity, and world hunger?
✨ Did you know it takes 16 pounds of grain to produce just 1 pound of beef — grain that could otherwise feed 16 times as many people?
✨ Did you know all the protein, vitamins, and minerals you need can be found in vegetarian sources like lentils, chickpeas, tempeh, and seitan?
🌸 Today, let your plate become an offering of love — for your body, for the Earth, for all beings.
