Instead of supporting recovery, food served in hospitals and nursing homes may undermine both patient and planetary health, researchers from PIK, Charité and @stanford.edu find - too few healthy plant-based foods, too many unhealthy, unsustainable options: www.pik-potsdam.de/en/news/late...

Nice @sentientmedia.org look at meat's climate impact quotes my book excerpt: “People are eating more meat, which means not only more methane from cow burps and manure, but the use of more land to grow grass and grain for animals to eat before we eat them.”
