Our diets are—to put it bluntly—a problem for the planet.
About a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions can be traced to food in some way. So what you put on your plate actually matters a lot more than you think.
In the newest installment of the Climate Lab video series—produced by the University of California in partnership with Vox Media—Conservation International CEO M. Sanjayan illuminates the footprint of food.

The video debuts on Vox; watch above or at youtube.com/vox.
It might just change the way you eat.
