How Changing Our Diets Could Help The Environment

There are a lot of efforts to reduce the impacts of climate change, from using renewable energy to changing how and where we drive. But a new campaign is focusing on our diets.

The Cool Food Pledge aims to cut food-related greenhouse gas emissions by 25 percent by 2030, and encourage diners to eat more plant-based food.

To talk about this, The Show reached out to Rich Waite, a researcher with the food program at the World Resources Institute based in Washington, D.C., which is behind the pledge.
