CREATE YOUR GREEN MEALS

Greener alternatives for meals contributing too much to the carbon footprint:
Although not in India as of now, a green fertilizer is being utilized in Germany that reduces
carbon emissions by up to 90%. Although carbon emissions for organic produce are low, this
will help cut them lower to compensate for the extremely high meat emissions to create sort of a
balance.
