Jonathon Porritt on consumption habits

Jonathon argues that, far from thinking we are powerless to change things, if we have even a little imagination we can think of new ways of doing things that can make a change. He gives the example of giving up eating beef. This is because raising livestock for human consumption contributes to 14.5% of greenhouse gas emissions, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Agency. Of all the meats, the production of beef produces the most greenhouse gas emissions. What other changes can you think of that will make a difference?
