Planted! How Local Governments are Increasing the Availability of Plant-Based Proteins to Reduce ... 

Many municipal buildings, schools, hospitals, restaurants, and workplace cafeterias do not offer plant-based entrees. Making plant-based meals the default (www.greenerbyd...) or even simply offering a plant-based option can help to reduce food-related emissions. In this episode, hosts Sarah Backer and Linda Breggin explore the rang of actions in municipal climate action plans (mrsc.org/explo...) aimed at increasing the availability of plant-based proteins. Hear from Rachel Atcheson ( / rachel-atcheson ) about how New York City is reducing their emissions while saving on food costs, from Angela Baucom ( / angela-baucom ) on how Austin is promoting food equity, and from Katie Cantrell on the different behavioral science strategies local governments can use to reduce food-related emissions.
