During these times of chaos we are living in, our waste is increasing and paper products are being used more than ever. The planet is sadly taking a hit and this is the perfect time to focus on sustainability. One way to help our plant is to incorporate sustainable eating, but what exactly does that mean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sustainable food is real and natural food that our bodies were designed to be eating. It is also healthier for our bodies because it isn\u2019t processed and sustainable food is packed with nutrients to fuel our bodies properly and keep us healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sustainable eating can incorporate many different ways of living such as using a refillable water bottle instead of purchasing bottled beverages, or incorporating meatless Mondays, or even shopping local. Farmers Markets are the best way to shop local from farmers in your area and learn about their practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are some ways you can practice sustainable eating on campus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever tried to garden? Growing something as simple as herbs can be helpful when it comes to sustainability. Fresh herbs are easy to grow and you can grow them in your own kitchen or even your dorm room! Use them to add fresh flavor to your dinners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buy in-season fruits and vegetables! When fruits and vegetables are out of season they have to be shipped from far away, which has a negative impact on our environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
