Diet that contributes to the broader environmental and social sustainability
Plant-based diets are a popular way of eating a sustainable diet
Sustainable diets are "dietary patterns that promote all dimensions of individuals’ health and wellbeing; have low environmental pressure and impact; are accessible, affordable, safe and equitable; and are culturally acceptable".[1][2] These diets are nutritious, eco-friendly, economically sustainable, and accessible to people of various socioeconomic backgrounds.[1] Sustainable diets attempt to address nutrient deficiencies (e.g., undernourishment) and excesses (e.g., obesity), while accounting for ecological phenomena such as climate change, loss of biodiversity and land degradation.[3] These diets are comparable to the climatarian diet, with the added domains of economic sustainability and accessiblity.
In order to create a sustainable diet, emphasis is placed on reducing the environmental cost incurred by food systems, including everything from production practices and distribution to the mitigation of food waste. At an individual level, most sustainable diets promote reduced consumption of meat and dairy products due to the particularly adverse environmental impact of these industries.[4][5] Data on the intersection between food and sustainability has been prioritized by a variety of international bodies such as the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO).[6]
