Paul McCartney’s Case for Meat Free Mondays

Sir Paul McCartney is asking the European Parliment to establish Meat-Free Mondays (see our meatless recipes if you care to participate). 

Less meat in the diet helps to avoid cholesterol problems for a healthier heart, and, as it turns out, also fights climate change!  Who knew…. 

Obviously, Meat-Free Monday wouldn’t be legally enforceable in Europe or most other parts of the world, but Sir Paul  a vegetarian himself, makes the case that people should be doing as much as our governments to fight climate disaster.Most people don’t realize that meat production accounts for 10 to 15 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions.  So why not do your part and cut meat out of your diet at least one day a week, maybe two.
