Livestock farming has a vast environmental footprint. It contributes 18% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Climate crisis is evident. Milk producing cows are artificially inseminated. Every sip of milk has 59 different powerful hormones which are harmful to human health. In order to help mother Earth out of climate crisis, we can substitute milk by consuming calcium and protein rich leafy vegetables, lentils, legumes, green soya, soya beans, mushroom, etc.
To highlight the importance of Veganism. CPREEC has organized the second Vegan Festival – Let’s Go Green at the C.P. Art Centre, 1 Eldams Road, Alwarpet, Chennai 600 018 on February 17, 18 and 19, 2023.
