A Sustainable Earth Eating ProgramWelcome to Climate Diet

At Climate Diet, we shed light on a critical, yet often-overlooked climate change culprit—animal agriculture. Recognized as the second-largest producer of human-made greenhouse gas emissions, animal farming is also the leading cause of deforestation, pollution, biodiversity loss, and soil erosion.

While seeking environmental-friendly alternatives to fossil fuels is paramount, it’s equally important for humanity to choose a more sustainable, plant-based diet. Together, we can tackle the dual challenges of climate change and food insecurity.

Meat Consumption

Hurting Our Planet

Do You Really Need Meat?

Animal agriculture is one of the leading contributors to climate change, taking up 80% of the world’s land area but only contributing to 20% of the global supply of calories. Most Americans consume more protein from meat than nutrition experts recommend. Renowned chef Alain Ducasse states, “Vegetable protein is more than enough to satisfy the nutritional needs of an individual.” Clearly, we don’t need as much meat as we’re consuming.

A staggering 70 billion animals are raised annually for human consumption, taking up 80% of global agricultural land. Furthermore, 16% of global freshwater is dedicated to growing livestock. With the demand for meat and dairy products expected to rise, we are placing a massive burden on Earth’s finite resources.
The solution to this looming environmental crisis is to shift to plant-based meals as much as possible. Why kill an animal for a burger when you can get one made from plants that are just as tasty and better for you?

A Healthier Alternative

“LET THY FOOD BE THY MEDICINE AND MEDICINE BE THY FOOD.”

– Hippocrates

Plant-based diets have been proven to offer numerous health benefits. Plants are rich in fiber, which can help lower cholesterol, stabilize blood sugar, and promote good bowel health. Additionally, a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains reduces the risk of cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and mental illnesses.

Leading medical expert Dr. Neal Barnard emphasizes that “A plant-based diet is not only the easiest and healthiest way to lose weight and keep it off, but all the ‘side effects’ are good ones. It’s a powerful way to turn conditions such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or type 2 diabetes around.”

Be A Superhero!

The best part about shifting to a plant-based diet is knowing your diet choices protect the environment. Turning ranch land into forests will mitigate the effects of climate change and create new habitats and reduce water pollution. You don’t need to have a cape to be a superhero—you just need to choose to switch to delicious and healthy vegetables!
