What can we do to lessen carbon footprint and beyond carbon emissions of several greenhouse gasses coming from our global food system? How can we make different choices about the way we interact with the food system? We can make a difference as individuals, communities, and as a society. It does begin on an individual level with different choices.Hack: We can’t give up hope even if we feel hopeless because there is going to be one thread that we can hold on to where we can see our efforts making a difference.Additional Info:Reach out to Mary:Website: www.marypurdy.coThe Nutrition Show:Mary's Nutrition Show - Mary Purdy - Integrative Eco-DietitianFacebook:The Nutrition Show with Mary Purdy RDTwitter:MaryPurdyHereLinked in:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-purdy-ms-integrative-eco-dietitian-3094065/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marypurdyRD/YouTube:Mary PurdyReach out to Me:Social:Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thepodcast_doc/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/nate.navasFacebook Group Name is Healthcare Podcast Community FacebookAffiliates:physiomemes.com (Discount code)= Nate20https://www.poddecks.com/ (Discount code)= PODDOC
