And how much protein do we actually need?Let’s separate fact from fiction in this relaxed, interactive session. We’ll look at protein recommendations, changing needs with age, common myths, and delicious plant-based sources. Rather than a traditional lecture, this will be a conversation with plenty of audience participation, questions, and a few surprises along the way. Come with your questions, your opinions—and maybe your favorite protein-rich dish for the potluck!Let's Eat Together!This evening will begin with a whole food, plant-based (WFPB) potluck.

Many people are unaware that there is a connection between our diets and climate change, species extinction, pollution of our air and waterways, deforestation, and many other serious environmental challenges. Eat for the Earth partners with institutions such as government, education, media, corportations, and nonprofits to adopt policies and practices that reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with food production. Through changing human dietary patterns, we can make a difference." } ] } ] ```
