The Hidden Cost of Our Consumption

Food production, fossil-fuels, and everyday consumption are now causing about five billion

dollars of environmental damage every single hour. That’s not just a headline — that’s

damage to the air we breathe, the water we depend on, and the stability

of the world we live in. Here’s why: climate breakdown leads to higher food prices,

more extreme weather, bigger insurance costs, and disruptions to the things we

take for granted — from groceries to gas to electricity. The food you buy, the fuel you use,

and the energy powering your devices all contribute to this massive hourly bill. Whether we like

it or not, we’re all part of the equation. But there’s good news.
