Food and Water

Can we eat sustainably?

It doesn’t have to be difficult to eat sustainably, but it does take some consideration of some aspects that might not normally be a priority.
By consuming food in a more conscious way, like verifying its origin, choosing seasonal products from the shelves and avoiding buying more than we eat, we can take a step toward sustainable living.
Sustainable nutrition consisting of wholesome, nutrient-dense foods are accessible and affordable in most places. They will help you preserve environmental resources and support local communities by choosing them, and in that way reduce your “Foodprint”.

Does the way we eat daily impact the environment? Definitely, yes. Diets high in animal protein and certain crops can increase water usage, contribute to soil depletion, and release methane and other fossil fuel emissions into the atmosphere. Large-scale agriculture and livestock production rely on highly resource-intensive farming practices. However, eating sustainably can mitigate these impacts and help lessen the impact of agriculture on the environment.
