EARTH WEEK!
Earth Week at UMD April 21st-April 25th
You don't have to go completely vegan or vegetarian to have an impact on the environment
Why Meatless?
Producing 1 pound of beef uses...
- as much fuel as driving a car 32 miles.
- as much grain as 20 loaves of bread
- energy as 256 100 watt light bulbs per hour
- as much water as taking 60 showers
Over a year, if everyone in the United States ate no meat or cheese just one day a week, it would be like not driving 91 billion miles - or taking 7.6 million cars off the road. (Source: Environmental Working Group)
