For my sustainability challenge, I’ve decided to reduce my meat consumption to once or twice a week while also including as many vegetarian and vegan substitutes as possible.
Cutting out meat is something I’ve thought about doing and tried a couple of times over the past few years but have never fully committed to. I’m hoping this challenge will give me the push I need. I’m interested in going vegetarian/ vegan for the health benefits as well as the sustainability aspects.
Some of the challenges I expect to face are finding good options while eating out and also ensuring I make the time to cook healthy meals at home.
By the end of the challenge, I would like to be in a position to go fully vegetarian and eventually go vegan in the future.

cCHANGE Team commented on Day 4: my sustainability challenge 4 years agoHello Sarah! Welcome to Ripples of Change. My name is Heidi and I am part of the cCHANGE team. Over the next 30 days, my colleague Leonie and I are going to be following your challenge and will support you and hopefully offer you new perspectives. You have chosen an important challenge, Sarah! It can be very hard to change a habit, most of them actually happen without us even noticing. That’s the autopilot that we talked about in the SMS yesterday. But over time, things that once were difficult might become the new normal – imagine if that happens with your vegetarian diet. You will probably also inspire the people around you to make different choices this month, and then you can clearly see the ripple effects of your experiment. More about this in a few days. I am looking forward to reading your updates and to hear more about what you discover. Best, Heidi Respond
