What if I told you that by signing this petition, you could fight factory farming, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, AND expand access to plant-based food? Well, you can. Take action now. President Biden could take action to make federal food programs like those in schools and hospitals serve people and the planet rather than bolster Big Ag's profits. And the upcoming White House conference on hunger, nutrition, and health makes this the perfect opportunity for him to act -- but this will only work if President Biden feels a groundswell of pressure from people like you. Will you sign your name and demand food that's better for people and the planet by midnight tonight? Industrial animal agriculture is one of the leading contributors to climate-warming greenhouse gas emissions. It puts workers at high risk of injury, pollutes our air and water, and subjects animals to immeasurable cruelty. And every day, the government funds this destructive industry by purchasing factory-farmed meat and dairy for public institutions like schools, public healthcare facilities, and correctional facilities. It doesn't have to be this way. President Biden has the power to expand access to plant-based food in public institutions, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and ensure that food is sourced from places that treat their workers fairly. And I know that with an environmentalist like you by our side, Friend, we can get him to act. We need 198 more signatures from your state. Are you with us? Standing with you,
Chloë Waterman
Climate-friendly food senior program manager,
