We want to issue a challenge to ALL of our readers for 2010:
1) CONVERT 10 OF YOUR VEGETARIAN FRIENDS TO BECOME VEGAN
2) CONVERT 10 OF YOUR MEAT-EATING FRIENDS TO BECOME VEGETARIAN OR VEGAN

Just think of the impact you can make on the earth, and the lives of animals worldwide, by teaching 20 people of the benefits of a animal-free diet and lifestyle.

Some resources to help:
