Over the last few years, like most people, I’ve tried to make an effort at reducing my carbon footprint. Everyone knows there’s too much plastic on this planet and we’re producing way too many fossil fuels so it’s nice to see people making conscious changes where they can. I eat a plant-based diet as animal agriculture produces more atmosphere-damaging greenhouse gases than all transportation combined; I shop with reusable bags, and I haven’t owned a car in 7 years.
