Hoekom ek ’n weeksdagvegetariër is

Choosing to go vegetarian can feel daunting, especially in a culture where meat is the main dish. Instead, cutting out meat during the week—'weekday veg'—offers a flexible path toward better health and a lighter environmental footprint. Swapping a single daily hamburger for vegetables can reduce the risk of dying by a third and save tremendous resources, since beef uses 100 times more water than most vegetables. By shifting habits just five days a week, people can achieve most of the benefits of full vegetarianism while still enjoying meat occasionally.
