I think that it is often taught that going vegan or vegetarian is the only way to eat sustainably or make an impact but there are also other ways. Purchasing meat or dairy products that are sustainably raised is also better for the environment. Supporting farms that are free range or have better conditions for the animals os also better ethically. Switching out meat for a meat substitute or milk for a nut milk even just once a week can have a positive impact.

I agree that being vegan is not the only way to eat sustainable because even reducing the amount of meet or animal products would help the environmental a lot. Its is a shame though that the price alone is what turns people from eating buying free range meats and organic foods.

I agree that even making the smallest change can play affect to the larger environmental problem. While people do not have to change to an extremity, making small changes to resort to more sustinable options is also beneficial.

I agree that there are lots of steps to take even if you don’t stop eating meat all together. Such as cutting out certain meats that have the biggest impact, such as beef. But then still consuming chicken, pork, turkey, etc. of which that come from sustainable farms. Also, eating locally can lessen the transport it takes to get a food item from place to place.

I agree there are many ways to sustainably eat. Trying to not eat as much meat is a great way but there are others. For example, sourcing your food locally can reduce the carbon footprint of say a peach form Georgia traveling to Maine. You can also support local farmers markets, by doing so you are supporting small business while buying food responsibly for the environment. Personally I try not to eat much meat because I know it is a small way I can help the environment in my everyday life.
