Then the Land will yield its fruit and you will eat your fill and live there in safety. Leviticus 25<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Widespread adoption of a meat free diet could see greenhouse gas emissions drop by 63 per cent. You can also reduce your environmental footprint by eating food produced according to LOAF principles:<\/p>\n

Local<\/strong> – so fewer food miles
\nOrganic<\/strong> – fewer chemicals which helps to conserve biodiversity
\nAnimal-friendly<\/strong> – if you choose to eat meat, buy meat with a higher welfare standard
\nFair-trade<\/strong> – better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability, and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Plant a fruit tree or some vegetables<\/li>\n
  2. Check your shopping for sustainable palm oil. According to WWF, palm oil is a very efficient crop and it is better to buy responsibly-produced palm oil than to boycott it altogether.<\/li>\n
  3. Reduce your meat consumption. You could increase the vegetable content of meat dishes as well as eating vegetarian or vegan food.<\/li>\n
  4. Set up a compost bin<\/li>\n
  5. Swap one item in your shopping basket for local, organic or fair-trade food<\/li>\n
  6. Plan your meals and use a shopping list. You could use an app like Kitche to keep track of food.<\/li>\n
  7. Eat seasonally – there are lots of ideas online, for example the BBC website<\/a><\/li>\n
  8. Instead of throwing away leftover food, see if you can use it to make something else (see lovefoodhatewaste.com<\/a> for some ideas)<\/li>\n
  9. Buy loose fruit and vegetables when possible. You can buy the amount you need and reuse a plastic bag, both of which save waste.<\/li>\n
  10. Use your food waste bin and help to generate green energy. Recycling just 6 tea bags creates enough energy to boil the kettle for another cup of tea. One banana peel could charge your phone twice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
