Subject: Education to low-income families about diet
Comment:
Low-income people, such as my family and friends, live in a culture that promotes eating animal, dairy and processed foods without knowledge about the effects on the climate and our health. I suggest that ARB implement a statewide outreach program including free education about nutrition choices that are better for health and the climate. For many people, they must have samples of alternative foods. The program must include distribution of alternative food choices at low or not cost. For example, minimally processed, locally produced non-dairy beverages, cheeses, and protein foods. The program can include recipes and demonstrations for how to make your own high protein vegeable-based foods. The program can be carried out by qualified nutritionists and local food programs, like Food Share in Ventura County, to provide free or low-cost samples.
