Introduction
Our aim
Sadly, the United Kingdom is not in good shape when it comes to nature, farming and sustainability.
In fact, it is one of the most nature depleted countries in the world.
It is our current food system and overall diet which is driving nature loss, polluting waterways and depleting soils at home and overseas, and as consumers we have a duty and responsibility to consider a sea change, and to develop an awareness of which foods are more ‘carbon-light’ and which are more sustainable
is very is harmful for our planet. Pesticides and plastics are also very detrimental and in most case are toxic for our soils and rivers. Hormones, chemicals and highly processed foods are all contributors to poor diet and health issues for people and planet.
However there are ways in which we can adjust our habits and preferences and our choices can have enormous effects on the damage we inflict.
At Net Zero Foods, we have developed our focus to help consumers to choose more sustainable options.
As humans, we often find it easy to make changes once we have tried them for ourselves. Therefore, Net Zero Foods focuses on creating products that are as healthy for the environment as they are for the individual.
We call it a vegan diet, we call it usually meat free. These diets help in choosing more sustainable foods that are naturally balanced, and most importantly, significantly reduces our carbon footprint. This is the necessary development of our food industry to align with net zero goals.
By reducing food miles and supporting local farmers, we can make a significant impact on reducing our carbon emissions. The closer the food source, the less we need to rely on transportation that contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.
Therefore in choosing more sustainable diets, consuming foods which are grown locally, in season and without pesticides, are very much a move in the right direction.
Alongside our movement towards climate action, we are experiencing a public health crisis in the UK. Processed foods are becoming a norm, and we need to return to fresh, wholesome foods to regain our health. This involves supporting sustainable practices that do not harm the environment.
At Net Zero Foods, we work to demonstrate and show that adopting a healthy sustainable diet can be a practical choice for everyone. We are dedicated to helping our planet and improving our well-being.
At Net Zero Foods, we want to demonstrate and show that achieving a healthy sustainable diet, for the uk population is possible, without everyone having to go vegan or vegetarian, or having to give up the foods we enjoy.
