Pledge to protect farm animals

On factory farms today, egg-laying hens are packed into cages so small and cramped that they can't even spread their wings. Baby calves are taken from their mothers and confined in tiny crates where they can barely move. Mother pigs are locked in crates nearly the width and length of their bodies, unable to even turn around, all day, every day until they’re eventually slaughtered.

By removing meat from your diet just one day each week, you can help save animals from this cruel cycle of suffering and slaughter. A few simple swaps will offer you a meal that’s rich in protein and flavor! Plus, studies have found that those who eat less meat have a lower risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke and cancer—in fact, adopting a plant-based diet can add up to four years to your life.

With a wide variety of meat-free brands and options becoming increasingly available in schools, restaurants and grocery stores, adopting a healthier, more humane lifestyle has never been easier. Get started!
