    Health More Fruits and Veggies
    How does eating more fruits and vegetables and less meat positively affect yourself, other people, and our planet?

    Eating less meat is crucial for a healthy lifestyle and a healthy planet. Cattle ranchers have clear cut millions of square kilometers of forests for grazing pastures, decimating natural Carbon sinks.

    How is electricity generated where you live? How does it impact the environment, animals, and humans?

    Fossil fuel, biomass, and waste burning power plants. Nearly all combustion byproducts have negative effects on the environment and human health: CO2 is a greenhouse gas, which contributes to the greenhouse effect. SO2 causes acid rain, which is harmful to plants and to animals that live in water.
