El Cajon

What a year of El Cajon’s menus is worth

An estimate. 37 restaurants here serve a vegan main, and 10% of the mains on their menus are ones a vegan can order, so about 605 vegan meals a day are ordered in place of a meat meal.

about 1,400,000 lbs of CO₂e kept out of the air

about 80,000,000 gallons of water saved

about 2,200,000 sq ft of forest spared

about 73,000 animals spared

about 220,000 plant-based meals

the average city we cover. Per-day figures from Cowspiracy and The Vegan Calculator, the same ones your profile uses. Restaurant covers from Technomic; the share of vegan dishes actually ordered from Garnett et al., PNAS 2019. Menus say what a city offers, not what was ordered.
