Food
eat 2 meatless meals a day
it boils down to land use. Farmers generally over fertilize their pastures to feed their cattle which puts unnecessary strain on the soil and affects the nitrogen and phosphorus cycles. I also have questions on how the cattle is killed and processed.
Food
Reduce Animal Products
I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Reduce Animal ProductsWhy do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our planet and other people?
masud tahmassbi 5/14/2021 4:55 PMBecause they can afford it and their country makes it more available. Not all meats are created equal. For instance, Lamb and Beef are 1 and 2 in ecofootprint, where Chicken and Turkey are 5 and 6 respectively. Chesse is actually number 3! over fertoilizing the soil to feed cattle contributes to greenhouse gases.
