FOOD
The average meal travels 1,200 miles from pasture to plate.
The closer your food comes from the less emissions and gas are required.
Go to Localharvest.com to find the nearest farmers market.
One acre of land can produce- 50,000 lbs of tomatoes, 40,000 lbs of potatoes, 30,000 lbs of carrots, or 250 lbs. of beef.
2,500 gallons of water are required to produce 1 lb. of beef and only 25 gallons of water are needed to produce 1 lb. of wheat.
Consider where your food comes while trying to consume less meat.
Even the Fredstrom is going to try to cut down on those burgers!
