BE THE CHANGE⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ By Jennif

BE THE CHANGE⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By Jennifer Chua @chuabone⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
--------------------------⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This week’s illustration is about being an inspiration to people. I’ve gotten a lot of feedback from my friends about how they’ve tried to make changes towards a more sustainable lifestyle because they were inspired by the efforts that I've put in. The illustration depicts three different scenarios where we can apply a waste-free lifestyle. The first is a lady bringing her own food container for a takeaway, and as she moves on to the bulk store and the 2nd hand clothes shop, more people join her. The idea is to show the influence that we can have when we try to be better. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🌱🇹🇭 The country’s (V) food scene is SOA

This week, I'm pondering: CAN WE PICK JUST ONE THING?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#LetterFromTheEditor by Green Queen Sonalie Figueiras.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This past week has been an all time low for the climate change movement globally. We've got sir David Attenborough telling us we we're at an irreversible point when it comes to species extinction at the same time as a new report alerts us that the current extinction levels are unprecedented. Another thing that's unprecedented? The wildfires ravaging the U.S. North West in what climate scientists are sounding the warning bell over and over with rising death tolls and overwhelmed fire services and hospitals, not to mention hundreds of thousands of evacuees. In the UK, the government wants to classify the controversial climate crisis protest group Extinction Rebellion (there's that pesky extinction word again) as an organised crime organisation. Here in Hong Kong, it's 32 degrees in mid September.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Remember all the climate change consequences we've been banging on about? They're here. It's not as if we are talking about some far away risk that we humans can't assess in our daily life. Everything is going wrong NOW. Our beaches are filthy with waste. Our food systems are ravaged by disease and toxins. Our landfills are overflowing with clothes we didn't need. Our oceans are drowning in forever plastic. Our air is poisoning us with decades of harmful emissions from too much travel, too much meat, too much energy. Our lifestyles are threatened by pandemics- like the one we're currently living through, that has just brought most of the world to a standstill. Our livelihoods are at risk due to extreme weather becoming commonplace. Our children's safe futures are hard to imagine...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

♻️Crafted out of natural plant-based waste matter, the company’s ethical solution embraces circularity and sustainability. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🌱 THE 5️⃣ BIGGEST MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT VEGA

🌱 THE 5️⃣ BIGGEST MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT VEGANISM⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
While veganism might be one of the hottest trends right now, many are still not exactly sure about what it means. You might be wondering: what are people confused about when it comes to veganism? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📝 A recent survey by @chewsygum revealed some of the main myths related to the topic by surveying over 3,700 non-vegans around the world.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Myth 1️⃣ "Going vegan doesn’t save the planet": while there are many factors that contribute to our carbon footprint, reducing meat and dairy consumption is considered the single biggest action to take to make a difference as an individual, with animal agriculture driving almost a fifth of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Myth 2️⃣ "Veganism is expensive": while it is true that some vegan items such as plant-based meats have yet to reach price parity with conventional meat, many staple vegan foods – fruit, vegetables, beans, grains such as pasta, rice and bread and plant-based proteins such as tofu are non-expensive items. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Myth 3️⃣ "Vegans don’t eat bread": though some breads that do contain eggs and dairy products are not suitable for vegans, there are many types of bread that are vegan-friendly, from sandwiches to sourdough loaves.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Myth 4️⃣ "Vegans eat honey": as a byproduct of bees, honey is unsuitable for vegans, who exclude all products derived from animals.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Myth 5️⃣ "Vegans are not healthy": this has been refuted by a plethora of scientific evidence, with studies continually showing that plant-based diets are linked to lower risk of cardiovascular diseases and reduced mortality from all causes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
