               greenhouse gas emissions when you are out of the
               house.

               Practice sustainable construction using foundation
               insulation, bamboo, recycled materials, insulating

          We also must reduce meat consumption. It is very tough to stop

          big  corporations  from  producing  industrial  meat,  which  is
          harmful to the planet, but we have the power to shift to other
          sources of protein to reduce heavy carbon emission.


          The Industrial meat production system requires massive land:


               to grow crops to feed farmed animals.

               to graze billion of cattle globally


          Heavy  deforestation,  global  warming,  and  destruction  of  the

          ecosystem are the resultant effects of these activities.
