In a recent survey, MyFitnessPal found that 90% of our members still eat meat, with 60% reporting they eat the same amount of meat as they did five years ago. Though eating meat can provide rich amounts of protein and certain vitamins, incorporating plant-based meals into your diet is not only good for you — it’s good for our planet.
To celebrate Earth Month and bring awareness of the impact of our food consumption to our members, MyFitnessPal is launching an in-app Eat Green Plan, a 14-day guide full of quick tips to reduce your environmental footprint, strategies for picking low-carbon impact foods, and other ways to reduce waste.
