MDS supports Veggie Thursday

Macular Degeneration Society is now a proud supporter of Veggie Thursday, which aims to increase people's consumption of plant foods and reduce their consumption of meat by encouraging this to go veggie once a week, on Thursday or whatever day suits them.


This idea appeals to people for different reaso
ns, including health, environment and animal welfare. Going full-time vegetarian doesn't work for many people, but once a week is a target most people can fairly easily reach.


Veggie Thursday hasn't been launched yet in Singapore but we will keep you posted of its latest developments. The programme has been endorsed by other organisations, including WINGS, Nature Society, Singapore Environment Council, AWARE and ACRES.
