Your most significant climate action is likely to be your decision to eat sustainably. The EAT-Lancet Planetary Health Diet allows you to eat everything you fancy, including meat and dairy, with an emphasis on foods from the garden. Devised by a team of experts to serve the health of the planet by reducing emissions and our health by avoiding those things which most shorten and impoverish out lives, the diet is a fundamental necessity if we are to deal with the climate crisis and create a sustainable way of living on and with our earth.
