REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Reduce Animal Products

Why do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our planet and other people?

Anna Schnars 10/17/2019 7:11 AM

People in richer countries can afford to eat meat. Eating more meat means more pesticides, chemical fertilizers, fuel, toxic manure and other pollutants contaminate our air and water. Eating a lot of red/processed meats are associated with heart disease, certain cancers, and obesity.

REFLECTION QUESTION
High Impact Action Track Reduce Single-Use Disposables

Bringing your own bags and containers to the grocery store, and even to restaurants for leftovers, are a couple of ways to reduce your waste. What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?
