Launched by Paul, Mary and Stella McCartney in 2009, Meat Free Monday is a not-for-profit campaign which aims to raise awareness of the detrimental environmental impact of animal agriculture and industrial fishing.
The campaign encourages people to help slow climate change, conserve precious natural resources and improve their health by having at least one plant-based day each week.
Meatless Monday is a global movement with a simple message: one day a week, cut the meat.
Meatless Monday is a non-profit initiative of The Monday Campaigns, working in collaboration with the Center for a Livable Future (CLF) at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Their goal is to reduce meat consumption by 15% for our personal health and the health of the planet.
They provide information, news, recipes and free promotional materials to help individuals, schools, restaurants, hospitals, food companies, and entire communities to start each week with a commitment to eating healthy, environmentally-friendly, meat-free meals.
