Join Us in Sounding the Shofar for a More Compassionate World!

Animal agriculture is a leading contributor to climate change, threatening billions of lives. The Torah teaches us the value of Pikuach Nefesh—saving a life—which overrides almost all other commandments. We face an urgent question: How can we save our planet and protect the precious lives at risk?

 

Our Answer, Rooted in Tradition

A global shift towards veganism can reverse climate change, and it aligns with Jewish values of compassion, sustainability, and health. Our campaign aims to educate and mobilize the Jewish community to adopt a plant-based lifestyle, safeguarding animals, our health, and our ecosystem from collapse.
