The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine has a petition going on Facebook that is worth signing (or at least taking a look at)! They are trying to get Congress to include more vegetables, fruits, vegetarian foods, and healthful nondairy beverages in school lunches. Congress is currently revising the Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act, which helps determine what foods are served in school lunches.
You can view more information about the petition and sign here. Or you can sign on their Facebook page.
