Earth Day tips: Healthy changes for big planet impact
On Earth Day, Dr. Sofya Asfaw from Cleveland Clinic emphasizes the dual benefits of adopting eco-friendly practices for both the planet and personal health. Encouraging outdoor activities like biking and walking can reduce vehicle emissions and improve physical health. She suggests dietary changes such as buying local produce and considering a more plant-based diet to lower carbon footprints. Asfaw also advocates for green hobbies like gardening to boost physical and mental well-being while promoting sustainable habits at home, like conserving energy and water, to enhance financial health and environmental impact.
