"Save Water Eat Plants" Lawn Signs Show Going Vegan Saves 600 Gallons Per Day
Most of California's consumptive water goes to meat and dairy – 47%, per Pacific Institute – yet, per National Geographic, a vegan diet saves 600 gallons of water a day. Therefore, adopting a plant-based vegan diet is the single most significant effort an individual can make to save California's water. Comparatively, taking one minute shorter showers save 2.5 gallons (commonly cited figure) and skipping a day watering the average lawn saves an average of 48 (crunched using EPA numbers). Governor Jerry Brown said on April 1, 2015, "We have to pull together and save water in every way we can."
How about in the most effective way humanly possible?
This lawn sign shows undeniable information from a highly reputable source (National Geographic) and is actually a very conservative estimate of how much water a vegan diet saves compared to many other estimates, including up to 3,700 as cited in John Robbins' Pulitzer-Prize nominated Diet for a New America (graphic showing figures here).
Take pictures of your lawn sign, send them to you local media outlets, and post them to social media using the hashtag #TruthOrDrought and #SaveWaterEarPlants!
Print it out for display or holding as a sign at fairs, local drought-related community events, or any other display uses! You can also make a car magnet out of it by printing, laminating and attaching magnets to the back, or you can order a pre-made car sign from us.
