Maggie Baird Says ‘Everyone Can Try’ Just One Plant-Based Meal Per Day

Maggie Baird, founder of Support + Feed, emphasized the importance of incorporating plant-based meals into our diets to combat climate change and food insecurity. She highlighted the environmental benefits of plant-based food, stating that animal agriculture is a significant contributor to habitat loss and the climate crisis. Baird encouraged people to take the Support + Feed pledge, which involves committing to eating one plant-based meal per day for 30 days.

Through education, cooking classes, and resources, Support + Feed aims to promote wider access to healthy and affordable plant-based food. Baird stressed the impact that individuals can have by making small changes in their diets, such as choosing plant-based options. By starting with just one meal a day, everyone can contribute to positive change and help reduce water usage and emissions associated with traditional animal-based diets.
