Footprints, impacts, emissions, it can all seem overwhelming. Where to start?
Put simply, global emissions come from a range of sectors and processes. As a result, there is no single solution that is sufficient in tackling climate change. Many solutions are required to limit our environmental impact.
Recent research has highlighted that the food sector demands immediate, focused mitigation efforts.
An agricultural report published by the UN has revealed that industrial livestock, including dairy production, contributes to at least 14.5% of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions.
Current food production practices are depleting resources and threatening natural ecosystems, while our generated emissions continue to drive global warming.
The good news is that, as individuals, we have the power to enact change by choosing lower impact products and lifestyles.
