Meatless Monday was revived in 2003 by former ad man turned health advocate Sid Lerner, who saw the prevalence of preventable illnesses associated with excessive meat consumption and decided to introduce Meatless Monday as a public health awareness campaign. The initiative was backed by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health’s Center for a Livable Future and endorsed by 30 schools of public health.
Meatless Monday has since turned into a global movement with a wide network of participating hospitals, schools, worksites and restaurants around the globe. The simplicity of Meatless Monday’s message has allowed the campaign to once again become part of the American lexicon.
Monday is the call to action built in to every calendar each week. And if this Monday passes you by, next week is another chance to go meatless!

Get the maths on mondaymug. The last day of a boys trip long weekend, also known as day of the dead. Typically involves packing up suitcase still drunk, rushing for flight back home, with afternoon filled with fear and self loathing about getting home to spouse and then tackling the prospect of work tomorrow.
I look forward to this trip all year, but I gotta say, Bxner Monday is a day that I wish didn’t exist.
