Get takeout. It's your civic duty.
Order takeout. If you can afford it, it’s your civic duty.

Hear me out, because I’m being serious. We’re being serious. Today The Boston Globe launches a campaign, Project Takeout, asking the public to do just that. Get takeout once a week if you can. Get takeout twice. Revisit a restaurant that’s an old favorite, or try a new one.

The pandemic may have slashed seating capacity for customers willing to eat indoors. Winter may have howled down outdoor dining. But these businesses just need to make it a little longer — to the warmer weather, to the vaccine’s full rollout. They just need to make it to the other side.

Spread the word: Post a photo of your takeout order on social media with the hashtag #ProjectTakeout and tag the restaurant.
