Quick Tip – Think of meat as a treat

Red meat production causes more environmental harm than any other food. Why? One reason is animals are often fed unnatural food … then create large quantities of waste which run into bodies of water, leading to contamination of fish & other aquatic life.

Mix up your intake with fish,  beans and nuts as other great sources of protein.
