Gina's actions

Food

Enjoy a Meatless Meal

Producing 1 kg of beef emits as much greenhouse gas as driving 150 miles, meanwhile, 1 kg of veggies or grains leaves a much lighter footprint! This week, I’ll shrink my climate impact by having 0 meatless meals and/or 3 vegan meals each day.

    What compelling argument would you share with me to encourage me to walk 3 miles today?

    If you have some time today to get outside and walk, take 30 minutes to enjoy the fall leaves and the cooler crisp air! It could distract you from the walking exercise and the 30 minutes could go by quickly. If you enjoy the walk, take another 30 minutes if time permits.
