Plant Based Treaty is a global initiative that encourages people, businesses, and cities to support plant-based diets and to understand how the current food system is exacerbating climate change. The landmark international treaty is the first of its kind and aims to put food systems at the forefront of combating the climate crisis to halt the widespread degradation of critical ecosystems caused by animal agriculture. It promotes a shift to more healthy, sustainable plant-based diets to actively reverse damage done to ecosystems and biodiversity loss. 

Plant Based Treaty is grounded in three core principles – Redirect, which focuses on shifting food production toward more sustainable, plant-based systems that generate lower emissions; Relinquish, which calls for halting the expansion of animal agriculture to protect ecosystems: and Restore, which promotes rewilding the land and addressing the climate crisis in a fair and equitable manner.  

Food Day in WeHo is organized by Plant Based Treaty Los Angeles and will feature a variety of plant-based foods, educational panels, raffles, and guest speakers. Event organizers are encouraging attendees to walk and/or bicycle to transit hubs and utilize transit to promote sustainability and environmentally friendly modes of transportation.
