I just figured out that nutrition labels don't show if my lunch is hurting the earth.

But is it really that big of a deal what one person eats? The_parker has a point about local food, but how much does my single lunch actually change things. It feels like we're worrying about a problem that's just too big.

Yeah, that hit me a while back. In my experience, I started just looking at where my food comes from. For example, I'll pick apples from a local farm stand instead of bagged ones from far away. Also, cutting down on meat, especially beef, made a big difference based on what I've read. Your mileage may vary, but these small swaps added up for me over time.
