Nutritional Cleansing

Every meal is a chance to care for the Earth. Come learn and taste with us! Celebrate Earth Day with a special edition of **Cooking for Peace** and discover how the food we choose can nurture both our inner world and the Earth we share. In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how plant-based cooking supports not only our physical health, but also our mental clarity, spiritual well-being, and the health of the planet. Together we’ll present and taste simple, delicious recipes while reflecting on the deeper impact of our food choices on animals, ecosystems, and future generations. You’ll also learn how conscious cooking and mindful eating can become everyday practices that help reduce our environmental footprint while bringing more peace, balance, and gratitude into our lives. Join us for an inspiring Earth Day experience that brings together **food, awareness, and care for the planet**, one meal at a time. This workshop includes a discussion and vegan food tasting.

\*\*"\*[Plastic People: The Hidden Crisis of Microplastics](https://act.sierraclub.org/events/details?formcampaignid=701Po00001d4LgXIAU), \*\*\*an 80-minute award-winning documentary from White Pine Pictures about plastic pollution and its impact on human health and the environment. The ground-breaking feature documentary investigates our addiction to plastic and the growing threat of microplastics on human health. Almost every bit of plastic ever made breaks down into “microplastics.” These microscopic particles drift in the air, float in all bodies of water, and mix into the soil, becoming a permanent part of the environment. Now, leading scientists are finding these particles in our bodies: organs, blood, brain tissue, and even the placentas of new mothers. What is the impact of these invisible invaders on our health? And can anything be done about it? **The screening will be held at the Greenbelt Cinema, 129 Centerway, Greenbelt, MD 20770.** Doors open at 1:30 pm. The documentary will launch at 2 pm, followed by discussion of solutions by distinguished panelists and participants."
