Santa Fe, NM mayor Alan Webber recently signed a proclamation declaring November “Vegan Awareness Month.” Webber’s proclamation cited environmental, health, and ethical reasons why city residents should learn about plant-based eating during November and beyond. 

美国新墨西哥州圣达菲市的市长艾伦·韦伯最近签署了一份公告，宣布将十一月份定为“纯素意识月”。关于市民们为何应在11月及以后了解掌握植物性饮食，该公告就此提到了环境、健康和道德方面的理由。

“The United Nations Environmental Program declared that a global shift toward a vegan diet could help save the world from devastating hunger, widespread fuel shortages, and catastrophic climate change,” Mayor Webber’s proclamation states. “Each day a person eating a vegan diet saves 1,100 gallons of water, 45 pound of grain, 30 square feet of forested lands, the equivalent of 20 pounds of CO2, and one animal’s life.” 

“联合国环境规划署（UNEP）已经宣布，全球人民转向纯素饮食方式，有助于使世界避免毁灭性饥馑、大面积燃料短缺和灾难性气候变化，”韦伯市长签署的公告宣称。“一个纯素食者每天可以节省1,100加仑的水和45磅的粮食，保护30平方英尺的林地，减少排放20磅的二氧化碳当量（CO2 equivalent），并挽救一只动物的生命。”

The Mayor continued to explain the widespread health benefits of a plant-based diet as outlined by American Dietetic Association and directed residents to explore the large variety of vegan options available citywide. 

韦伯市长继续解释了美国饮食协会（ADA）列出的植物性饮食的广泛健康益处，并指示市民们探索尝试全市大量种类繁多的纯素产品。

“Santa Fe is rightfully celebrated as one of the world’s great food towns, and we pride ourselves on all the delicious vegan options that our restaurants and cafés have to offer,” Mayor Webber told VegNews. 

“圣达菲市是世界上当之无愧的一座美食城。本市的各家餐馆和咖啡厅提供各种美味的纯素食品，我们大家都以此为豪，”韦伯市长告诉VegNews网站。

“The First Peoples of this land sustained themselves with corn, beans, and squash, and we are proud that these traditional ingredients continue to find their way into contemporary menus. The City of Santa Fe is a leader in water conservation and earth-friendly practices, and we support people who choose a vegan diet for whatever reason, whether health or environment.” 

“这片土地上最早的民族以食用玉米、豆类和瓜类为活。我们很自豪地看到，这些传统食材发展到今天，在现代菜单上仍占有一席之地。圣达菲市是节水和环保方面的领导者。无论人们以何种原因（健康或环境等因素）选择纯素饮食方式，我们都会予以支持。”
