Going Vegan or Vegetarian: Diet Choices to Help the Planet

Esteemed nutritionist Nancy Clark will discuss the benefits of reducing meat in the everyday diet and the importance of being an informed vegan or vegetarian to be active and healthy.

Did you know that researchers have found that vegans have the smallest carbon footprint, generating about a 40% percent smaller volume of greenhouse gases than meat-eaters do? But if you are a meat-enjoyer, there are other ways to choose a sustainable diet.
