A CLIMATE-
FRIENDLY DIET

According to a recent University of Chicago study, the greenhouse gas burden of the average American diet is 1.5 tonnes greater than a fully plant-based, or vegan, diet. 

That's a 50% bigger difference than switching from a Camry (30 mpg, average) to a Prius (57 mpg).

And it's nearly 20% of the average North American's personal greenhouse gas footprint.

That GHG footprint continues to shrink as one buys food farmed with minimal petrochemical inputs (e.g., organic food), that hasn't travelled far and that isn't highly processed or packaged.
The fact is, following an energy-efficient diet is one of the most important things you can do to avert global warming.

And it doesn't have to be "inconvenient" —
