It's Cow & fans at Los Angeles' eco festival. If you like our e-zine and HappyCow, please share with friends.

Switching to a diet free of meat, dairy, and egg saves more carbon emissions than driving an reduced energy car like the Toyota Prius. How much more? 50% more!

Our community is powered by caring people everywhere who are dedicated to promoting a compassionate, sustainable, healthy lifestyle. More than a guide to restaurants and health food stores, HappyCow is your one-stop resource for everything VEG.
