Climate Action: Day 4

26th April, 2023

Create a ‘Green Meal Plan’ for the next week (or month)!

Keep the following in mind:

• Eat seasonal fruits and vegetables

• Try to buy organic food

• Support local farmer’s markets and eat local food

• Eat a plant-rich diet (fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans, peas, nuts, and lentils): Animal-based foods are associated with the highest greenhouse gas emissions.

• Avoid wasting food (or use leftovers to make compost!)
