The diet we consume and our choice of transportation are two crucial areas where each individual can make a significant impact on both personal and planetary health.

Every time we substitute animal products with plant-based alternatives, we not only bolster our own health but also that of our planet. This reduces our risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and type 2 diabetes. Additionally, it promotes animal welfare, preserves biodiversity, and significantly reduces CO2 emissions and pollution.

Opting for walking, cycling, or using public transportation instead of driving, and especially minimizing air travel as much as possible, plays a huge role in reducing our carbon footprint.
