ОглавлениеHaving children has changed our lives more than anything else. We realise now, more than ever, that most of the things we want for ourselves we also want for the world – peace, happiness, love, prosperity and, above all, health. We used to think of health as a diet – some worked for us, some didn’t. Once we looked at health as the truth, instead of as a diet, it became a mission for us to share that truth and lifestyle with as many people as possible.
We are not about promoting any one way of living your life. You decide what’s best for you. What we are encouraging is for everyone to incorporate more plant-based meals into their everyday lives. As our dear friend and plant-based guru Marco always says, ‘The more you lean towards plants, the more you benefit.’
The facts about plant-based eating are hard to ignore. The benefits of a single plant-based meal per day can have a profound impact on our health and the environment. Chronic diseases seem more prevalent than ever before – especially among those with lower-income levels and less access to real food. It’s not a poverty issue. It’s not a minority issue. It’s an all-of-us issue. The world won’t change itself. We need to change it. A single decision by one person can affect change not only within themselves but also within their family, their community and the planet.
We want to challenge you, as we challenge ourselves, to move towards plant-based foods. We all have a responsibility to stand up for our health and the health of the planet. Let’s take this stand together. Let’s spread the truth. Let’s make this mission a movement. Let’s become ‘the Greenprint’.
