If you love the planet, you won’t only count calories. You can now count carbon cost. Instead of eating a banana from Ecuador flown here on a carbon dioxide emitting jet, eat an apple from close by, that means produced locally, not far from the consumer. The carbon cost of all food is about one third of all greenhouse gasses so if we all lower our carbon cost we will also slow down the oncoming global climate disaster. In order to stop it completely we will still have to do more, but the cutting carbon cost of our food will help.
