This tool can be used as a two-in-one tool: Map Your Meal This tool allows users to compare sustainability of popular meals. Examine Your Eating This allows them to quickly assess their overall diet. Both cases provide users with an eco-impact report card that includes six sustainability metrics and suggested plant-forward recipes. This tool is intended to inspire individuals, businesses, and policymakers to make food choices that are good both for animals and the environment.
It is an honor to recognize the contributions that individuals, brands, or organizations make to their communities. Jessica Lauretti, Managing director, The Anthem Awards, stated. This platform was created to show the world that all aspects of culture, including entertainment, business leaders, and celebrities, are united in a call for systemic change and that social good is what society values.
This award is a huge achievement in our campaign efforts to rebalance the plate away from environmentally-destructive meat and dairy and towards climate-friendly plant-based foods, said Ben Williamson, U.S. Executive Director, Compassion in World Farming. Even small changes in what we eat can have a significant impact on the air, water, lands, and wildlife that live in them. The Evaluate your Plate tool is fun and award-winning. It allows us to see the entire picture of what we eat, and helps us start on a path towards more compassionate eating.
