Meat Out Today
If all of our recent talk about vegetarianism and veganism has got you thinking about reducing or eliminating your meat intake, try joining today's Meatout and go meatless for the day.
Meatout, which occurs annually on March 20th (or the first day of spring), is sponsored by the nonprofit group FARM, Farm Animal Rights Movement, which advocates plant-based diets. Held since 1985, FARM uses this event as a way to educate people about living a meat-free lifestyle. In Chicago, you'll find people leafleting and hosting informational tables at various locales. Or you can celebrate by sending friends some e-cards.
