Depending on the day and schedule, my husband and I try to carpool as much as possible. IT is not only good for the environment, but goo for our relationship, quality time, and the cars.

What do you think contributes to people in North America eating more meat than any other places, and what does this say about North American values and ways of living? How can we start shifting from a meat-focused food culture to a more plant-based one?

I think we eat more meat because we make it more readily available and it has a status symbol- Steak is fancy and expensive and so people think it helps them look important.

I think we have a different set of values when it comes to "using the whole animal" and "respecting where our food comes from"

I think creating "fake meat" is not the answer, plus those are filled with chemicals and GMO's- it would be better for us to show alternative options to food- bean or nut based things, etc.

Substitute with reusable utensils and reusable veggie bags or clothe
