比利時北部城市「根特」將成為全球第一個、全市居民每星期至少吃素一天的城市。「根
特」從這星期開始，陸續推行每週至少一天吃素，這項活動首先從市府公務員及議員開始
。
「根特」市府表示，他們注意到飼養牲畜對環境的影響。聯合國也表示，全球廢棄排放量
中，將近五分之一來自牲畜。因此「根特」發起素食日，聊表對環境的保護之責。學校學
童將從九月開始，跟進這項素食計畫。另外，「根特」市府目前正在印製九萬份地圖，特
別標示出當地的素食餐廳位置。

The Belgian city of Ghent is about to become the first in the world to go
vegetarian at least once a week.
Starting this week there will be a regular weekly meatless day, in which
civil servants and elected councillors will opt for vegetarian meals.
Ghent means to recognise the impact of livestock on the environment.
The UN says livestock is responsible for nearly one-fifth of global
greenhouse gas emissions, hence Ghent's declaration of a weekly "veggie day".
Public officials and politicians will be the first to give up meat for a day.
Schoolchildren will follow suit with their own veggiedag in September.
It is hoped the move will cut Ghent's environmental footprint and help tackle
obesity.
Around 90,000 so-called "veggie street maps" are now being printed to help
people find the city's vegetarian eateries.
