Mediation practice

TASK:  Make a summary of the following tip to protect the environment. Make use of the information provided in the text below. 

EATING TOO MUCH MEAT, FISH AND FRUIT

These foods are important for our diet, although they are not very healthy for the natural environment. In a 2018 report, Greenpeace warned that 14.5% of all greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) come from industrial stock farming. The meat industry, for example, negatively affects land use because between 75 and 80% of the world’s agricultural land is used for stock breeding. But if this same land were used for growing vegetables, there could be food for 4 billion people more.

Overfishing does not help to protect the environment either because it harms the sea. You can also be a responsible fruit consumer by choosing seasonal varieties.

Do not write the literal information in the original text in the new text. Remember to reformulate the text linguistically. Do not write more than 80 words and use a formal register.
