What a year of Gig Harbor’s menus is worth
An estimate. 5 restaurants here serve a vegan main, and 7% of the mains on their menus are ones a vegan can order, so about 61 vegan meals a day are ordered in place of a meat meal.
about 140,000 lbs of CO₂e kept out of the air
about 8,200,000 gallons of water saved
about 220,000 sq ft of forest spared
about 7,400 animals spared
about 22,000 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.
