Planetary Boundary series #3: Biodiversity Loss 🐾
We’ve already crossed the line... and your plate had something to do with it.
Biodiversity loss isn’t just about endangered species on a poster. It’s about the collapse of the systems that keep soil fertile, water clean, and food growing. When species disappear, the whole network weakens, and we are part of that network.
The hard truth: animal agriculture is the leading driver of habitat destruction globally. More land cleared, more species displaced, less resilience left in the system.
The less obvious truth: every time you choose plants, you’re choosing less land use, less pressure on wild ecosystems, and more room for life to exist.
breaks down exactly where stands on this boundary — what we’re doing right, and where the work isn’t finished.
Because knowing the limit is step one. Building a food system that respects it is everything else. 🌱
