PB&J Can Save the Planet!
The PB&J Campaign is working hard to make sure that peanut butter does its part to save the planet!
According their website, peanut butter will:
1. Slow global warming: “If you were going to have a ham sandwich or a hamburger, you save the equivalent almost 3.5 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions.”
2. Save water:”That’s about 280 gallons of water over the hamburger. To put this in perspective, three PB&Js a month instead of hamburgers will save about as much water as switching to a low-flow showerhead.”
3. Save land:”Have a PB&J and save 12 to 50 square feet of land from deforestation, over-grazing, and pesticide and fertilizer pollution.”
4. Save animals:”As a veggie meal, no animals will be harmed in the sandwich’s production.
