Eating healthy you protect your health. This is a logical first thought.
But can you imagine what this means for the environmental protection?
Eating Healthy for environmental protection. Eating healthy has a great number of benefits for our body as well as a great effect to environment.

A number of chemicals are used to enforce fruits and vegetables to stay “alive” and “fresh” during their journeys’

from the pick up points through distribution channels, to the point of sale.

The transportation fuel, the manufacturing energy for cooling and heating
attribute to global warming.

A planet based diet without any animal ingredients, is the most efficient
green food, a balance healthy diet of fruits and vegetables, to protect
our planet:
it prevents the equivalent of 1.5 tons CO2 emission every year- more
than the 1 ton CO2 emission prevented by switching to a hybrid car!  

what is then healthy eating? What is the best diet we should follow for
our health and environment protection?

Eat meat less often.   
Eat a balance diet of fresh seasonal, organic fruit and seasonal, green,
organic vegetables that are produced in your local area.

By eating seasonal,fresh fruits and vegetables from an organic production, we keep our body healthy and  in the same time we protect our environment.
