Eating more meat uses more resources and increases your carbon footprint. Eating lower on the food chain, reduces your carbon footprint and frees up land and resources that could be used to grow more food for people. People in richer countries eat more meat because it's readily available and affordable. It's easy not think about the true cost.

I have started to buy in bulk when I can to cut down on smaller quantity packaging.  That is how I got my oatmeal for this month :)
