Take the pledge. Reduce your meat consumption!
Looking for a healthy alternative to meat? For every Earth Day Sampler Pack, Paleta will donate a dollar to plant a tree through EDN’s Canopy Project.

Did you know that the meat industry is responsible for about 20% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions? That’s more than the entire transportation sector! The production and distribution of meat doesn’t just consume a lot of energy and cause greenhouse gas emissions, it also requires a huge amount of water—up to 2,500 gallons to produce just one pound of beef. Take the pledge to reduce your meat consumption today! And the problem is getting worse. Over the last 10 years alone, global meat consumption has increased by 20%. So what can we do to help solve this problem? It’s simple—eat less meat! In terms of greenhouse gas emissions, eating just one less burger a week for a year is the equivalent of skipping 320 miles of driving. Join us in pledging to not eat meat one day a week. Thanks for your support. -The Earth Day Network Team
a message from Robert Reich
I’m sick and tired of a tax system that favors the wealthy at everyone else’s expense, so I put together a special Tax Day video that explains the problem—and what we can do about it.
The first step toward solving a problem is understanding it. If, after you watch this video, you agree that it’s time to change things, please share the video with your friends.
Together, we can build an economy that works for everyone, not just the wealthiest 1%.
Thanks for lifting up your voice in our democracy.
–Robert Reich
