WORLD VEGETARIAN DAY 2022: World vegetarian day is celebrated on the first day of October. It also kickstarts Vegetarian Awareness Month.

World Vegetarian Day: History

World Vegetarian Day was established in the year 1977 by the North American Vegetarian Society (NAVS) to highlight the surfeit of benefits of vegetarianism, including saving the lives of animals. Following this, in the year 1978, it was endorsed by the International Vegetarian Union. Since then, every year on October 1, people celebrate the day all across the world.

World Vegetarian Day: Significance

The primary aim of the day is to create awareness about the multiple advantages of vegetarianism and support networks for vegetarians across the world. Animal slaughter on large scale requires a lot of water and other limited resources. The process emits methane and other greenhouse gases which are a big burden on the degrading environmental situation.

By cutting down the consumption of meat, the harmful effects on the environment can be lowered. Additionally, vegetarianism also eliminates the risk of infection, bird flu and fish-borne diseases among others. Several studies have indicated that a vegetarian diet helps in maintaining a healthier heart and decreases the risk of diabetes.
