Just getting started and learning my way around! Excited to see everyone's progress and notes

I invision a community where all members participate in preserving natural resources,  conserving  energy, reducing waste and living  a more sustainable lifestyle. I believe education is key for this reality. I think  people are doing more and more  to protect our environment as they are learning more about the consequences and impact we have...

I have no idea why that is the case, and in fact, I actually question the evidence. From my observation, meat is desired and consumed equally by people in every economic level. Fear over not getting enough protein or the dubious science behind vitamin B12 deficiencies tend to frighten people into meat-based diets.

This was an eye-opening learning for me and my family. We now do not stress over food that is past tits sell-by date and instead rely on our common sense and human sense to determine when you dispose of food.  This reduces our food waste, as we tend to consume items completely instead of tossing them after the sell-by date.

Health benefits of not eating more food than necessary..

The hours of labor, and energy waste motivates me the most, but I can't articulate why exactly - I suppose efficiency and frugality are values for me.

When eating without distractions, my mind wanders to topics that I otherwise would have forgotten about.
