Robust health and a clean sustainable environment is every human being’s basic need. Both are under threat today.

Vegetarianism is a universal lifestyle of harmony. It represents the basic knowledge and science of living harmoniously in the universe. The motivation, spirit and determination of people going vegetarian is very clear, definite and firm: to bring health, welfare and harmony to life and Planet Earth. Considering the strong traditional beliefs amongst the peoples of the region in meat-consumption, we need to work out practical programs to help us understand the benefits of making food choices such as vegetarian, particularly for the reasons of health and environmental protection.

The time has come to make a change in our lifestyles, as practiced by Albert Einstein and Mahatma Gandhi half a century ago, Dr.Abdul Kalam, Paul Mc Cartney & Dr. Rajendra Pachauri in recent years. It is imperative to establish better-organized systems and present a simple plant based lifestyle as a green, light and healthy choice and as a need for the health and sustainability of life in the Arabian region
