Want to help save land, soil, air, animals and your own health?
You can do all these simultaneously! It’s easy: Eat with the earth in mind.
This website, and the book to come, will show you how.Greening your food can be done by anyone—omnivore, vegetarian, student, full-time worker, homemaker—anyone who spends money on food. Greening your food can be done anywhere—in a supermarket, a restaurant, or your own kitchen.
Food choices that are better for human health are almost always better for the planet, too.
How can food choices help save the earth?
- Every apple grown locally saves gasoline, packaging, and refrigerated transport.
- Every experiment you make with diverse produce helps to preserve heritage fruits, vegetables, and grains.
- Every organic egg represents more humane treatment of animals and an investment in the new, healthy food economy.
- Every meal without meat reduces the use of pesticides, antibiotics, and hormones, and frees up land to grow more food for more people.
