#18 - Warming Oceans

Hi Greensters 🌊

🔥 The oceans are heating up like never before — Europe’s seas just hit record temperatures, fueling extreme floods, wildfires, and chaotic weather across the globe.

🌪️ Scientists warn that these warmer waters act as a giant energy battery, intensifying storms and shifting rainfall in unpredictable ways. Even with La Niña on the horizon, the long-term warming trend won’t let up.

🌮 On a lighter note, this week’s green meal brings smoky spiced cauliflower tacos with creamy avocado crema — a planet-friendly twist perfect for taco night.

Enjoy

🥗 The Green Meal

Tacos that love the planet as much as your taste buds.

🥦 Cauliflower is a superstar swap for meat: hearty, versatile, and dramatically lower in emissions. Producing 1kg of beef can generate up to 60kg of CO₂e, while the same weight of cauliflower comes in under 1kg. That’s a 60x difference.

🌮 Seasoned with smoky spices and topped with avocado crema, these tacos deliver all the flavor with none of the heavy footprint. A delicious way to shrink your carbon impact, one bite at a time.

♻️ Eco Tip

Awareness: 🚿 Washing clothes in hot water uses about 75% more energy than cold, most of it just heating the water.

Action: ❄️ Switch to cold washes! Modern detergents work just as well at lower temps, saving energy, extending fabric life, and cutting your carbon footprint — all while keeping your clothes clean and fresh.

❣️ Quote of the Week

We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch — we are going back from whence we came.


John F. Kennedy - 35th President of the United States
