Abstract

Increasingly, with growing interest in the digital space and a rising focus on environmental sustainability, there is a high potential for digital tools to enhance knowledge about plant-based nutrition. The paper discusses how digital platforms, mobile apps, and online resources can make the message of plant-based diets a core component of environmental education. Such digital tools-interactive features, data-driven insight, and multimedia resources-support better knowledge and behavioral change toward more sustainable food choices. It explores how an ecological footprint calculator, interactive quiz tools, and virtual simulation make learning about plant-based diets a creative and engaging process that could build eco-conscious habits among the learners. It identifies challenges in the light of data accuracy, issues regarding access, and the complexities of bringing long-lasting behavioral change in a solution-oriented way. This provides best practices for integrating digital tools in educational settings, actionable recommendations for educators, health professionals, and policy-makers. It means that by embedding these resources within the curricula, public health, and policy frameworks, the digital resources will assist in bringing up a generation of informed and eco-conscious people who will be committed to sustainable dietary habits. This shift not only promotes personal health but also contributes a great deal to the global environmental goals, making digital tools a very important component in the journey toward sustainability.
