What Your Plate Says About:
Most people see food as taste.
Few see it as a climate choice.
But every meal we eat has a footprint.
Every vegetable has a journey.
Every grain carries a story of water, soil, energy, and resources.
Climate change is not just happening in forests, glaciers, and oceans.
It is happening on our plates.
🌍 The Hidden Travel Story of Your Food
The tomato in your supermarket may have travelled:
- From another state
- In refrigerated trucks
- Through cold storage
- Through chemical ripening units
By the time it reaches you, it has lost:
- Freshness
- Nutrients
- Water content
- Flavor
And it has gained:
- Emissions
- Energy waste
- Plastic packaging
This journey is called food miles.
And food miles are one of the biggest invisible contributors to climate change.
🌍 The Water Footprint You Never See
Here’s something surprising:
- 1 kg of rice = 2,500 litres of water
- 1 kg of wheat = 1,600 litres
- 1 kg of millets = 300 litres
Millets—our ancient grains—use 90% less water.
Your plate can either conserve water…
Or waste it.
🌍 The Soil Story No One Talks About
Chemical fertilizers destroy soil microorganisms.
Pesticides poison the earth.
Monocropping weakens land until nothing grows without chemicals.
So what happens?
We grow more food
But kill the land it grows on.
At Tattva Farms, we follow the opposite philosophy:
- No chemical fertilizers
- No harmful pesticides
- Compost-only soil nutrition
- Crop rotation
- Rain-fed irrigation
- Mulching for moisture-lock
This is farming with nature, not against it.
🌍 Your Daily Food Choices = Daily Climate Choices
When you choose:
- Seasonal over imported
- Local over long-distance
- Fresh over processed
- Millet over rice
- Farm-grown over market-packed
You lower your carbon footprint dramatically.
we don’t need big activism.
nor,don’t need complex science.
Just thoughtful eating.
