What did you find out? What is the most interesting fact you learned?

I learned that you can save the environment by avoiding processed foods. It also makes you healthier and helps the environment at the same time. We can also reduce the amount of meat that we eat. We can also talk to people that don't really know the effects that food can do to the environment.
