It's great to eat local, but a diet heavy in "local" meat, dairy and eggs is not eco- or climate-friendly. #EatPlants. #LocalVegan #vegan livekindly.co/vegan-diets-be…

Plant-based meat is exciting: it’s better for the planet, it’s radically more efficient and it averts harm to billions of animals. In this talk from EA Global 2018: San Francisco, Bruce Friedrich describes his journey to become an innovator in this space: efctv.org/2IvZVjm

If I value animal welfare most, and you value human health most, can we work together to do more good according to both our values? We believe so, using a process called moral trade. Learn the basic theory behind moral trade here: efctv.org/2CWq5N7

Hotter temperatures reduce the #meat production in a number of #livestock animals, including pigs. Instead of looking for way to cool these animals, lets move away from animal agriculture in order to help the #environment. bit.ly/2xJjsbf

If rural #women were given equal access to resources, services & employment we could increase farm yields by up to 30%. #ZeroHunger
This map is great. It shows how climate is likely to change specifically where people live. Taking the abstractness away, allowing us to understand what climate change means on a local scale. bit.ly/2OcOhiV @CarbonBrief
