About the Book
What if one small change-made just one day a week-could improve your health, protect the planet, and help reduce global hunger? In Saving Three Birds with One Stone (H3U), public health scientist Kanak Iyer shows how reducing meat consumption for a single day each week can create meaningful impact across three interconnected challenges: health, habitat, and hunger. Grounded in scientific research and real-world experience, the book presents Meatless Mondays as a practical, inclusive solution-without advocating extremes.
Blending clear science with accessible recipes, H3U empowers readers to turn everyday food choices into measurable action.. Small choices. Collective Impact.
