Skip the Burger:

According to researchers at the University of Chicago, eating one less burger a week substantially lowers your greenhouse gas emissions, while switching to a vegetarian diet can reduce your carbon output by 1.5 tons. By comparison, trading in a standard sedan for a hybrid car cuts your carbon footprint by one ton.

M Cafe de Chaya

Why It's Good:

Sidle up to your favorite B-list actor at the picnic tables lining M Cafe and bite into your BBQ burger (yes, it's seitan—oops, did we mention this is a macrobiotic joint?). The menu at M Cafe is incredibly inventive, delicious, and healthy. Our favorite is the teriyaki tempura bowl with black cod—it's a crispy melange of savory goodness.

Why It's Green:

The chefs at M Cafe use only in-season ingredients and prep them minimally. As with anything macrobiotic, all food is free of refined sugars, eggs, dairy, red meat, and poultry, although there is fish on the menu.
