The Center for Plant-Based Diet Development (CPDD) is a non-profit organization
(Chapter 504, Iowa Code) that encourages individuals, research institutions, and
government agencies to support plant-based diets as an important means of
reducing global warming, environmental damage, health problems, world hunger,
and the unethical treatment of animals.
Our mission is to educate the
public about the environmental, health, and animal welfare benefits of
plant-based diets so that the demand for plant-based foods will increase,
allowing these benefits to be obtained.
CPDD provides a local presence in
Ames, Iowa, to counter the strong academic and cultural bias that favors
animal-based rather than plant-based diets.
We envision a future in which
people choose plant-based diets to create a compassionate and sustainable
society...one that not only benefits humans, but also sustains and protects
non-human animals and the ecosystems to which we all belong.
