A new campaign called “Eat A Whole Lot More Plants” has launched in New York City to encourage citizens to adopt a healthy, balanced diet.
Ads for the campaign will run on television, radio, subways, NYCLink, outdoor media, and digital channels. The ads will explain the benefits of whole plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and nuts, highlighting their nutrient density and lack of sodium, added sugar, or unhealthy fats.

As longtime vegans, we, at Wildlife Watch, are very excited to hear this news.
Meanwhile, at a state level…
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) partners with the League of Humane Voters®/NY (LOHV®/NY) to push for S996/A3708, the NYS bill that would mandate nutritionally complete plant-based food options in public schools. While the bill didn’t pass this year, we will continue efforts into 2024! Its success is inevitable!
