"Go Meatless on Mondays"
Good afternoon everyone. I'm asking you to join me in adopting a simple change that can positively impact
both our health and the planet - going meatless one day a week. On Mondays, commit to leaving meat off
your plate and choosing vegetarian options instead. Research shows cutting back on red meat just a bit
provides significant benefits. You'll reduce your risk of chronic diseases while lessening your environmental
footprint. Meatless Mondays are easy to incorporate into any lifestyle. So, starting next week, I hope you'll
help raise awareness around sustainable eating by participating. Every small choice matters - will you make
this one with me?
II. Transform the given sentences into:
Simple Compound
