California Residents: Take a Powerful Action for Farmed Animals & Kids!

The 10 largest Unified School Districts in California control the daily school lunches for over 1.2 MILLION children.

Encouraging schools to increase their veg lunch options is a powerful form of advocacy which can prevent animal suffering, improve children’s health, and it is actually recommended by California legislation!

Here’s why it’s important:

-Reduce animal suffering:

Serving more plant-based meals to children will help thousands of farmed animals who suffer every day in ammonia-filled factory farms and terrifying blood-filled abattoirs.

-Improve school kids’ health:

Daily veg school lunches are endorsed by major health organizations including: The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Cancer Society, the American Dietetic Association, the American Heart Association and more! Furthermore, the World Health Organization recently ranked processed meats alongside cigarettes with regard to their carcinogenic threat to human health. These foods should not be fed to children.

-Supported by California legislation:

ACR-16 Nutrition: The Vegetarian School Lunches Act, calls for daily plant-centered veg school lunches. Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the State Departments of Education and Health Services are urged to develop nutritionally sound school lunch menu plans that would provide daily plant-centered vegetarian school lunches, prepared without meat or dairy products.

Let’s work together to ensure this legislation is enforced, and help California schools achieve the benefits!
