When starting to move away from eating meat, it’s not necessary to go whole hog. Here are some popular transition pathways:

“Meatless Monday” or “Vegan before 6”
Reducetarians are committed to eating less meat, dairy, and eggs — but following their own hearts and individual motivations.
Flexitarians mostly eat plant-based foods but occasionally take meat, fish, eggs, or dairy.
Planetarian Life is an approach that makes plant-rich cooking simple, sustainable, and delicious while saving time, money, and the planet. It recognizes the need to move at one’s own pace when transitioning away from meat.

CFREE (Carbon Free Residential - Everything Electric) is a subcommittee of the Lincoln Green Energy Committee. CFREE provides guidance on how households can reduce use of fossil fuels and decrease greenhouse gas emissions to help Massachusetts meet statewide emissions limits set for 2030, 2040, and 2050. It also provides information about state and federal incentives that help reduce the cost of such changes.
