    Eating less meat is becoming more common all over the world. In the US, for example, there is a campaign (运动)called Meatless Mondays. The idea is to have meatless meals every Monday. By the end of 2018, 230 middle and primary schools in the US had joined this campaign, according to Southern Weekly. These schools give students a vegetarian breakfast and lunch every Monday.

    How did Meatless Mondays become part of food culture in the West? The first reason is that it's healthy. Many studies have shown that eating less meat is good for people's health. "Vegetarian diets can lower risk of fatness heart disease and

    cancer", scientist Sharon Palmer told CNN, "Even going meatless one day a week can make a difference."

    _______________A study from Nature found that animal products create a lot of greenhouse gases(温室气体).78 percent of total agricultural emissions(农业排放) are from them. If we eat less meat, it will be better for the environment.

    In March this year, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said that all public schools in New York City would join the Meatless Mondays campaign. Joining the campaign, he said, will help us stay healthy and keep our planet green for the future
