Environment

Eating foods that are low on the food chain, locally grown, organic, and minimally packaged are powerful ways to reverse wilderness destruction, soil erosion, energy waste and pollution. In 2008, we focused on the environment.

Health

In 2009, we focused on health. Why are vegetarians at lower risk for heart disease, many types of cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, food poisoning, obesity, and more? What health risks are associated with meat? Learn how to eat a nutritious vegetarian diet.

Animals

Thisi year, 2010, we are focusing on compassion. Of the more than 400 million animals slaughtered in Canada last year, most were raised in cramped, overcrowded spaces, artificially bred, separated from their young, fed growth hormones and denied sunlight and fresh air.

Cuisine
