San Jose

What a year of San Jose’s menus is worth

An estimate. 428 restaurants here serve a vegan main, and 27% of the mains on their menus are ones a vegan can order, so about 19,810 vegan meals a day are ordered in place of a meat meal.

about 48,000,000 lbs of CO₂e kept out of the air

about 2,600,000,000 gallons of water saved

about 72,000,000 sq ft of forest spared

about 2,400,000 animals spared

about 7,200,000 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.
