If you've come here today it's because you care about what you eat and about what's happening to our climate. We do too. That's why we started Meat Free Monday.

Meat Free Monday is an environmental campaign to raise awareness of the climate-changing impact of meat production and consumption. Many people are unaware that livestock production is responsible for 18% of global greenhouse gas emissions – that’s more than the entire transport sector.

On this website you will find good information about how food affects climate and updates about our campaign, as well as delicious alternatives to meat-based meals.

You can also find out how to talk to other supporters, sign up to our newsletter and pledge to do your bit by having one meat-free day a week.

In the future we are all going to have to change the way we eat. We believe that it is possible to do things like changing our diets with a sense of optimism, joy and the satisfaction that you are really helping to make a difference in the world.

Please join our campaign and encourage others to do the same.
