Today is Earth Day and there's never been a more critical time to take action for the future of our planet.

The Earth loses 56 acres of forest every minute, increasing carbon levels that cause climate change and devastating local communities.

What's the most effective way for you to help fight climate change? Is it giving money to charities to plant more trees? Is it riding a bicycle instead of using your car? Is it saving energy at home? Well, all these are great, but if you are not vegan, the best thing you can do as an individual is to switch to a plant-only diet. And if you are vegan, the best thing you can do is to help educate others.

In the face of the devastating consequences of climate change - from extreme drought to surging floods - you can take concrete action right now to help build a safer, more sustainable planet for all.

By changing to a plant-only diet, you will begin to allow much of the Australian landscape to regrow, absorbing harmful carbon and helping to combat climate change.

This Earth Day, will you commit to fighting for our planet's future by going vegan and telling others?
