Taking One Step At A Time | Aanika Patel & Sarah Moran | TEDxSaintFrancisHS

Have you ever thought about how the food you eat can affect the planet and your health? Aanika Patel and Sarah Moran are not perfect in their eating habits, but are mindful of what they eat in the context of a sustainable and healthy lifestyle. Listen to Sarah and Aanika give a new twist on what changing one’s eating habits really means. Aanika Patel is a senior at Saint Francis High School. She enjoys various outdoor adventures, spending quality time with her family and friends, and trying new recipes for her family to try. In her TED talk with Sarah Moran, she will share the benefits of sustainable eating habits on the environment, immune system, and mental health. Aanika is excited to immerse herself in a new setting next year at college and foster more friendships.

Sarah Moran is a senior at Saint Francis High School in Mountain View. Sarah started to make changes to her life to be more eco-friendly, after educating herself more about the climate crisis in early 2019. The biggest change she has made so far is switching to a pescetarian diet and then switching to a vegan diet later on. Sarah loves to spend time outdoors whether it is on long hikes at Edgewood Park with friends, or watching the sunset at the beach. In the future, she hopes to help people make changes in their diets to be more sustainable, and travel as much as possible. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
