Greenpeace Philippines celebrates the launch of 'World Meat-Free Week' — a global movement to encourage the public to adopt a healthier plant-based diet. The group seeks the support of public officials to provide plant-based meal options in schools in an effort to instill a healthier and environment-conscious mindset among children.
Environmentalists, youth, women, farmers and consumer advocacy groups in the Philippines are part of a growing movement that this week have put together activities to promote plant-based meals, calling the attention of local officials to the need for providing citizens with healthier food options, both for their health and the environment.
