Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plant-based foods – such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans, peas, nuts, and lentils – generally use less energy, land, and water, and have lower greenhouse gas intensities than animal-based foods.

Detailed explanation-2: -These items have often travelled by air, which creates around 10 times more carbon emissions than road transport. Buying local seasonal produce can help to reduce carbon emissions by reducing the time it takes for food to get from the ground to our plates.
