According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization report Livestock`s Long Shadow, animal farming is a bigger climate-change culprit than the global transport industry!

Worldwide, livestock generate 18% of our climate change gas output, with transport adding just 13.5%.

Vegans choose more climate-friendly food every day - such as fruits, grains, vegetables and pulses - instead of meat, eggs and dairy. See the World Vegan Day website for : http://www.worldveganday.org/ for information.

If you don`t manage to get to an event on World Vegan Day, don`t panic: the whole of November is now generally known as World Vegan Month, so look out for activities later in November too.
