How to Celebrate Earth Day 2020
The future of the Earth is in all of our hands. Here
are some ways to show that you care right from the comfort of your kitchen!
Every year, the whole planet comes together to celebrate none other than...our planet!
Our home feeds and nurtures us, gives us a wealth of natural resources, and is always there for us; as its inhabitants, the least we can do is work together to preserve it.
From reducing your plastic use to walking to work more often, changing up your habits in the smallest ways could have the biggest impact on our planet. After all, Earth Day is also a reminder that it is up to us to take action against the looming threat of climate change.
In addition to other lifestyle practices, take your Earth Day celebrations to the kitchen this year with
these ideas on how to be more sustainable with food (delicious recipes included!).
Consider going vegetarian for Earth Day, as an eco-friendly diet can help you meet your clean-eating goals and benefit the environment! By taking the meat out of your meals, you can reduce greenhouse gases.
This doesn’t necessarily mean having to say goodbye to that steak for good, but reducing your consumption even a little bit can go a long way. Here are some recipe ideas for meatless meals that are delicious, nutritious, and good for both you and the planet.
