Approximately 15% to 18% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from cows that are being raised for humans to eat.  You can help by eating more plants and less meat.  Have you heard of meatless Monday?  Meatless Monday is a simple pledge to eat a vegetarian dinner on Monday instead of meat.  This is an easy, healthy, and affordable way to help the planet.  We even provide you with some recipe ideas below.

Your challenge:  Serve as the climate leader in your family by asking to eat an all plant-based dinner and working with your parent or guardian to plan the meal.  Also, try to figure out where the ingredients in your meal came from.  For example, did the lettuce in your salad come from California or did the avocado come from Mexico? For your video, show us what you prepared and what you learned about where the food came from.
