But that doesn't mean that it's necessary to cancel such a delicious event. It is possible to make changes to the menu that considerably ___________ this impact. Here's just one example: if a group of 30 friends who tend to barbecue a month reduce the amount of meat consumed at the event by half, replacing that amount of meat for the consumption of vegetables, a consumption of 1 million and two hundred thousand liters of water will be avoided - enough to meet the needs of a family of 4 people for 8 years and quite!
