January’s Heroes

This month, 350,000 people are expected to go vegan. These are the heroes that are saving both animals and the planet. In most cases, they are also saving their health.

Environmental researcher, Joseph Poore, calculated that the people expected to go plant based this month will prevent 41,200 tonnes of C02 entering the atmosphere. That is equivalent to 450,000 flights from London to Berlin.

As for animals, a million will be saved from being put through the horror of slaughter, and many will be saved the suffering of being factory farmed. Studies have found that farm animals experience similar emotions to dogs, and in many cases, similar to three year old children. It therefore cannot be seen as OK to put them through suchj unimaginable horrors that we would never put children or dogs through.

Could you be one of the heroes saving animals and the planet for your children, and their children? There is no shortage of help and support online, which you will see by reading on. If you are concerned about missing out on certain vitamins and nutrients, experts explode those myths. And don’t think you have to be able to cook, because there are an enormous number of vegan convenience foods now available from supermarkets and other food outlets.

You can even calculate how much you will be helping animals and the environment with this vegan calculator.

Veganuary

Veganuary is a non-profit organisation that encourages people worldwide to try vegan for January and beyond. During the 2019 campaign, more than a quarter of a million people took the pledge to try a vegan diet, while more than 500 brands, restaurants and supermarkets promoted the campaign, and launched more than 200 new vegan products and menus in the UK market alone. 2020 is set to have an even bigger response.

Throughout the year, Veganuary encourages and supports people and businesses alike to move to a plant-based diet as a way of protecting the environment, preventing animal suffering and improving the health of millions of people. And with lots of delicious food to try, there really is no down side to it.

You can find helpful tips, easy meal plans and delicious recipes, plus more on the Veganuary website.
