Become a weekday vegetarian and save the world and yourself Did you know that meat causes more emissions than all of transportation combined (that's cars, trains, planes, buses and boats) and beef production uses 100 times the water that veg does.
Just by becoming a weekday vegetarian you would be cutting out 70% of your meat intake, but you can still have that hamburger or steak on the weekend! Your carbon footprint will reduce, you will save money, you will be healthier, most likely live longer, and maybe even lose some weight! What are you waiting for?
