Delighted to be part of this great research led by alliegaines published in Nature Food ! Small changes to alternative food products can reduce GHG emissions by 25%. More ambitious shifts can reduce emissions further (-71%). nature.com/articles/s4301… #sustainablediets #GHG
Want to eat more sustainably without going vegan? 🍔 Deakin University research, by Drs Michalis Hadjikakou, Carla Archibald, Ozge Geyik and PhD candidate Pankti Shah, shows simple swaps like opting for a chicken burger over beef can slash carbon emissions by up to 96%! deakin.edu.au/research/resea…
