EARTH DAY IS APRIL 22ND – BE SURE TO PROMOTE A VEGGIE LIFESTYLE!
Earth Day is April 22nd each year. This is the perfect time to promote a veggie lifestyle to friends, family, students, etc. and The Vegetarian Resource Group has many materials on www.vrg.org that you can use. Visit: http://www.vrg.org/environment/
Here you’ll see Save our Water: The Vegetarian Way (in an English and a Spanish version), which shows that the largest user of fresh water is the livestock industry. There’s even a chart showing you how much water is used to produce various foods.
You will also find many creative lesson plans and handouts to use with students of all ages. Topics include Water Conservation and Dietary Connections for grades 5-8, as well as A Comparative Study of Surface Water Quality with Dietary Connections for Middle/High School students.
