A celebration of meat-free life...
Paul McCartney is urging India to declare a national Vegetarian Day.
PETA says McCartney sent a letter to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, saying a day like that could save animals while helping to protect both the environment and people's health.
McCartney's letter says "it would be a celebration of life."
It was estimated that 42% of India's 1.2 billion people are vegetarian, due mostly to financial and religious concerns.
