Yes, we can even go green with our eating! Eating green is a lot more than just buying organic foods.
It is knowing where your food comes from, packaging information, etc.
Below are several ways that people can make better choices for the environment when it comes to eating.
Tips for Eating Green Go Local.
Look for local farms that provide organic produce and only feed their animals organic foods.
Not only are you helping the little guys, you are also, in many cases, making a greener choice.
Find Fairtrade Foods.
When you are not going with local choices, this is a relevant alternative.
The "Fairtrade" label means that the products meet the Fairtrade standards.
This means that the goods usually priced fairly and producers are being treated fairly.
Go Organic.
Make sure that what you buy has been made organically and in an eco friendly manner.
Avoid chemicals and other harmful things that hurt the environment.
Recyclable Materials.
Pay attention to packaging.
Is it made from recyclable materials...
or can it be recycled? This should be a major part of your decision making when choosing what to buy.
Just Say NO..
..
to genetic modification.
These are living things that have had their genetic make up changed and mixed with another living thing.
Yuck.
Plus, we do not know the long term negative affects of this ungodly way of doing things.
There is only One God.
Free Range and Kindness are the only ways to go.
Who wants to eat something that has been abused or mistreated? Not me.
God never intended for us to mistreat animals.
I do believe we can eat meat.
However, I do not think that means be inhumane and cruel to them.
Let the chicken run free, I say! LOL! Seriously, this is a lot more than eating green.
It is making choices that are not only good for the environment, but also ones that are pleasing to the Creator of the environment.
God wants us to do what is right.
It's as simple as that, people!
