Here is a small pastured eggs farm's call to action: buy a couple of chickens!
All your food scraps will be utilized. Any leftover food will be fully recycled into egg production. Let them free in the back garden. Let them fertilize, scratch, engage in their natural behavior. Let them put nitrogen and organic matter back in the soil.
The food they will make for you (eggs) has some of the lowest carbon footprint of all protein sources. Graph of food carbon footprint not per kg of food, but per gram of protein below:
