Plant-Rich Diets

SOURCE: Project DrawDown
| 2023

The Plant-Rich Diets solution, as proposed by Project Drawdown, highlights the potential of plant-based diets for mitigating climate change while promoting health. It involves individuals adopting a 2,300-calorie daily diet, meeting protein needs with plant-based foods instead of meat, and opting for locally produced foods when possible. This shift can replace current dietary trends and lead to significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.
