“Systems that produce highly processed, unhealthy foods and beverages are driving a wave of obesity, increasing cancer and heart disease while generating a third of global greenhouse gas emissions.” ~ WHO
A plant-based or vegan diet is one of the best ways to reduce your impact on the environment and what more? It is the best diet for your health too!
1. It Reduces Carbon Emissions, Saves Energy & Water - Rearing animals and processing animal foods emit a huge amount of greenhouse gases & consume a lot of water energy. By avoiding meat & dairy products you can reduce your carbon footprint on the planet by up to 73%! Plant-based proteins can be produced with 8 times less energy cost as compared to animal products! The more we replace livestock farms with plants, the more water our grounds will hold.
2. It Heals & Detoxifies - Whole, plant-based foods are rich in natural fiber, micronutrients, water content & enzymes which help your body to flush out toxins and heal diseases. Several chronic lifestyle diseases, including diabetes, heart diseases, arthritis, thyroid, etc can be completely reversed with the help of a plant-based diet.
3. It Is A Healthy Choice - Plant-based proteins and foods are low in calories and fats. Animal proteins are packaged with fats.
