    A short course that includes videos and activities such as match the pairs of statements. It addresses healthy and sustainable eating by recommending more plant-based food and less meat (or no meat). Guidelines and some recipes are provided, plus links to some helpful websites. Learners are taught to think about where their food is produced and choose local, in season foods where possible. No foods are banned, although limiting intake of sugar, salt, and fat is recommended. How to reduce waste (of both food and packaging) is discussed.

    Plenty of relevant information packed into a compact course!
