WHAT CAN I CHANGE IN A WEEK? (BY AMIR LALE)

Bad eating habits are one of the most alarming problems related to ecological footprint. Meat, cheese, and eggs have the highest carbon footprint while Fruit, vegetables, beans, and nuts have much lower carbon footprints. Dairy products take massive part in our personal ecological footprint is because the dairy cattle need to feed on grass that requires lots of water exploiting the environment. The other one is the packaged food products. If the packaging is excessive, or if it’s made of materials that aren’t easily recycled, then it can cause even greater environmental problems. Personally, I eat dietary products and products at least 5 days a week. I can diminish my personal ecological footprint by eating more vegetarian food and cutting back on dairy products and packed foods. Although this protects our environment at a lower scale, it can help create awareness within my friends and widen the influence.  Amir Lale/ 140120109
