Abstract:
Eating a plant-based diet is one of the most effective ways people can reduce their carbon footprint. However, global consumption of meat and other animal products is increasing. Studying childrens beliefs about food may shed light on the relationship between eating behaviors and climate change. Here, we examined childrens knowledge of the plant and animal origins of foods, as well as childrens judgments of what can be eaten, using 2 dichotomous sorting tasks.
