The Menu: Make the change — introduce a few vegan tendencies to your eating habits

"A 2018 paper found every individual’s carbon footprint would be reduced by 73% if they stopped eating meat and dairy. Water consumption footprints would be halved and global farmland use could be reduced by 75%; no more evisceration of the Amazon rainforests — planet earth’s ‘lungs’ — to farm beef cattle."

When La Daughter was younger, veganism really got her goat. You can’t even roast vegans, she’d sputter, they’re full of vegetables. I could never fathom the root of her animus. 

She eats more fruit than a small zoo. Pasta is the only cure for hunger. Sushi is good food. She makes matcha bubble tea, photographs every dish and, despite her industrial-scale nonchalance, her social conscience fires on all cylinders.
