Music food Texas green hellogoodbye Mr. Natural
Oh what a first week we had hanging with some of the greatest people ever—who are all learning (or helping spread the word) that Meat's Not Green! Did you know seventy percent of the leveled rain forest in the Amazon is used to raise animals for meat consumption? That can't be good for anyone!
We joined our friends from hellogoodbye in California to start the BBQ tour. Like pros, these manly men got right to building grills.
We're also making new friends, like Ace Enders and Never Shout Never.
Jason and Sergio (Ace Enders) and Casey (Never Shout Never) all signed our petition this week to inform everyone and spread the word that Meat's Not Green!
And these rad Texans got involved by getting decked out in MNG stickers!
We'd also like to welcome Casandra to the HGB tour. She'll be out talking to you about what we can do to help save the planet AND animals at one time—like try going vegetarian for a week. You'll help save the rain forests and feel healthier, and you might even want to stick with it once the week is over! If you're already vegetarian, try going vegan for a week!
This week in my tummy, we went to Mr. Natural in Austin, TX—a 100% vegetarian Mexican restaurant. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
Peace like a river,
Paige!

That's why I work for Meatless Mondays, a campaign dedicated to encouraging Americans to stop eating meat on Mondays, thus reducing their meat intake by 15%, significantly reducing one's risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and stroke. One day a week without meat makes the effort manageable, but it's still effective, in both health and environmental sustainability. You should check out our website for great articles and meatless recipes, http://www.meatlessmonday.com. The Corn and Squash Santa Fe Calabacitas are full of delicious veggies and it's easy to cook on the stove in 20 minutes. Meatless Monday is affiliated with the Johns Hopkins School of Health, so the site can also be a resource for health articles and tips.
