Health and sustainability are inextricably linked. Sick humans on a healthy planet are not more sustainable than healthy humans on a sick planet.
I applaud WeWork’s commitment to the environment. Climate Change is a threat to human health.
Unfortunately, becoming meat free for employees is not the most effective or science-based way to support this commitment.
At the same time that meat is not being catered by corporate events, there are copious quantities of insulinogenic and diabetogenic foods served and promoted within the premises. From a science perspective, the carbon emissions from agriculture in the United States are 10% of the total. The carbon emissions from health care in the United States are 10% of the total.
A population struggling to prevent insulin resistance (up by 41% in Washington, DC, 76% Nationally, 1.67 million people in MD/VA/DC have pre-diabetes or undiagnosed diabetes, most don’t know it) will create a most unsustainable environment for all, through increased use of pharmaceuticals and associated health care. See this image to see what happens to humans when they ingest these foods: www.flickr.com/photos/taedc/28943375057/
It’s estimated that the use of $200/month of pharmaceuticals equals the offset from going completely vegan in 1 year. Same for taking one (1) transcontinental flight.
A better, more science-based approach, is to implement a sustainable food policy that incorporates health and the environment together.
