Cutting meat out of your diet is the most impactful dietary decision you can make for our planet, aside from going fully plant-based.
Animal agriculture contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and water pollution. Avoiding meat helps to mitigate these environmental impacts and is associated with lower risks of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain cancers.
If youβre looking for an easier shift that still has a significant impact, start by cutting out red meat:

Here are some tips to complete your meat-free transition:
1. Ramp up your meatless meals
Incorporate more plant-based meals into your diet. Start with one or two meatless days per week and gradually increase toward your goal.
2. Explore plant-based proteins
Experiment with plant-based meat alternatives like tofu, tempeh, seitan, and legumes. These can provide texture and protein in dishes traditionally made with meat.
3. Make use of meal planning
Plan your meals in advance to include more plant-based options. Look for diverse recipes to keep them exciting and satisfying.
4. Leverage community support
Join online forums, social media groups, or local communities focused on reducing meat consumption for tips, recipes, and support.
5. Track your progress
Keep track of your meat consumption reduction progress to stay motivated and celebrate milestones along the way.
