    Why do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our bodies, our planet, and other people?

    Individuals in richer countries are able to afford the luxury of being able to eat more meat and to store it properly for preservation, so it is more readily available to us.

    While dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come from eating/serving smaller portions?

    By eating smaller portions, we're able to control the amount of food we eat, in order to keep from over-eating. It's important to know it's time to stop eating when you're no longer hungry, not when you're full!
