Going vegan is an easy way to cut down on personal water usage, and it's the best thing that anyone can do to help stop animal suffering. According to Environmental Defense, if every American skipped one meal of chicken per week and substituted vegan foods instead, the carbon dioxide savings would be the same as taking more than half a million cars off U.S. roads.
"It's impossible to 'go green' without going vegan," says PETA hottie Chris Takemoto-Gentile. "Just by changing their diets, concerned people can help protect the Earth, their own health, and countless animals."
