Get Planty Tips for Consumers
Are you trying to reduce the climate impact of your food? You don’t have to go vegan to make a difference! Plus: you don’t have to compromise on health or taste either. Eating foods that are good for the planet is often incredibly healthy, very affordable, and very, very tasty.
So what can you do? Pick and mix your actions from this list!
- Simply avoid beef or lamb – this will have the biggest positive impact.
- Update your favorite recipes by swapping meat for lentils, beans, or seasoned tofu. Canned beans and other legumes are a tasty, healthy, and very affordable alternative to meat. You don’t have to learn new ways of cooking to eat planet-friendly!
- Try out a plant-based day each week. Once that is going well, why not add a second plant-based day?
- Got friends who are trying to reduce their meat and dairy intake? Support them by choosing vegan-friendly restaurants, cooking plant-based meals, and talking positively about plant-based foods. Social support matters!
- Are you a real foodie, and don’t want to miss out? Explore some vegan fine dining in your area.
