World Water Day

Water is the most precious resource we have
In California we are living a 4th year of 'exceptional drought'
One way to save a lot of water is by eating a plant-based diet.
Animal Agriculture requires a lot of water and resources.
One quarter-pound hamburger takes 621 gallons of water to produce.
That's enough water to take over a month's worth of showers.
While a veggie burger (soy based) takes only42 gallons of water.
Both provide about the same amount of protein!
And the veggie burger has protein, it is healthier for you and our planet


Please visit the website Truth or Drought to better understand
the connection between animal agriculture and droughts.

Oceans collapse 2048 or Meat Out

For every 1 pound of fish caught,
an average of 5 pounds of other marine species
are caught, killed, and discarded.
NASA and National Graphic have studies
saying that our oceans might 'collapse' by 2048,
the amount of oxygen we find on the Earth's atmosphere
is related intrinsically with the acidity of the oceans.
