5 Ways You Can Help Animals This Earth Day

April 22 is Earth Day, and it’s the perfect time to slow down, reflect on how our actions impact the planet, and consider the ways in which we can do more. Maybe this year, you’ll plant a garden, volunteer to do a coastal cleanup, or attend a local festival. Whatever you choose, here are five easy actions that you can incorporate into your day that will help animals and the planet:

1. Share this image on Facebook!

Let your friends and family know that while dairy products may not be meat, their production is just as bad for the Earth (not to mention cows).

2. Bring a vegan dish to the office to share with coworkers.

Why not use your time while you’re sitting in traffic to let others know just how detrimental eating meat is?

4. Share the Cowspiracy trailer and host your own moo-vie party.

The more people who see this vitally important film, the faster we can save animals, people, AND the planet.

5. Go vegan!
