New York City public schools will be adopting the “Meatless Monday” program at the beginning of the 2019-2020 school year, city officials announced on March 11.

The program would provide students from the city’s 1,800 public schools with all-vegetarian breakfast and lunch menus every Monday, something Mayor Bill de Blasio said would improve New Yorkers’ health and reduce their environmental impact on the planet.
