Exercise provides various health benefits on both the physical and emotional levels. Animals produced for consumption contribute to over 17% of climate affecting gasses , increasing the greenhouse gasses of CO2 and the much more damaging gas, methane. Anxiety builds in us when there is an external stimulus that we can’t control.

Another main driver of this warming is emissions of greenhouse gases like CO2, water vapor, and methane from human activity. Climate change is a major threat to public health, food security, water supply, economic growth, and social stability. It is also one of the most complex challenges humanity has ever faced.

Organic waste in landfills generates methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Instead by composting this waste, methane emissions will be significantly reduced. This compost can also be used to organically help plant health and growth by being used as a mulch or potting soil. Which in turn, saves you money on waste removal.
