World Vegetarian Day
published on Thu. Sep. 27th, '07 by Sita ChaitanyaComing up October 1 is World Vegetarian Day. Started in 1977 by the North American Vegetarian Society, its popularity has grown over the years and now there are events and celebrations held throughout the month of October all over the world.
For those new to vegetarianism, it serves as an enticement to give meatless fare a try (even for a day) and learn about its many benefits. And, of course, it's the perfect occasion for vegetarians and those already moving towards plant-based diets to celebrate their healthy, compassionate food choices.
The main goal of Vegetarian Awareness Day and the following Vegetarian Awareness Month is to promote the benefits of being vegetarian, through community events, outreach materials, and sponsorships.
The simple act of choosing vegetarian meals is a powerful force for positive change — impacting ourselves, other people, animals and our Earth home.
