[Coral-List] Happy World Recycling Day

[Alina Szmant]

Have you transitioned to a mostly plant based diet? Especially giving up beef and dairy? One-third of global warming and climate change is directly attributable to raising and maintaining food animals,  from deforestation to grow their feed, to pollution associated with their feces, to excess water use,  to energy costs of growing, slaughtering and transporting their remains.

Our food wastes go into the compost bin, our bottles and cans go to the
recycling center and my electric car is powered by sunlight on my roof.
Anything more I can do?
