Penne with broccoli, lemon & anchovies
The carbon calories of seafood vary dramatically, depending on the size of the animal and how it is caught. A good rule of thumb is the smaller fish, like the anchovies in this recipe, have a lower climate impact than the bigger fish, like salmon and tuna. This is because smaller fish can be caught more e ciently, saving fuel, resources, and energy. Carbon calories per serving = 1,411 (45% of your daily goal)
