Environment
Our commitment to the environment.
Our actions as a business to protect our world:
Vegetarianism:
We are doing our part by being true to our belief in a plant based diet.
I was born into a Hindu culture, one that celebrates vegetarianism. Back in time when Hinduism adopted vegetarianism, it was perhaps a reflection of a deeper understanding relating to sustainability, as well as respecting all life on our planet. There is continuing debate about how a plant based diet has less impact on the Earth and its resources.
The following links are a compelling argument for a Plant based diet:
Sir David Attenborough speaks about vegetarianism and the planet
