Why this pledge is so important

‘A vegan diet is probably the best way to reduce your impact on planet Earth.’ Joseph Poore, School of Geography and the Environment, The University of Oxford.

5 reasons why we should eat plant-based 

  1. Reduce carbon and methane emissions 
  2. Reduce impact on land
  3. Prevent deforestation and wildlife destruction
    • 40% global warming is caused by forest clearance to make way for animal agriculture, threatening 25,000 species with extinction. 
  4. Protect fish and ocean wildlife
    • For every 1kg of fish caught, up to 5kg of marine species are caught and thrown away as by-kill. We’ve already killed 90% of big ocean predatory fish.
    • By 2048 it’s predicted that we’ll run out of saltwater fish all together.
  5. Reduce water consumption 

Eating plant-based is a global growing trend because of the impact our diet has on the planet. Due to popular demand there is now a plant-based alternative for pretty much everything, so it’s easier than ever. 

4 easy plant-based swaps
