Explanation:

Processed foods often have a higher environmental impact due to energy - intensive production, packaging, and transportation. Eating fewer processed foods can reduce waste, energy consumption, and the use of additives and preservatives, promoting more sustainable food practices. Buying tropical fruits may involve long - distance transportation, switching from chicken to beef is less sustainable as beef production has a higher carbon footprint, and eating fresh vegetables year - round may require energy - intensive greenhouse production in non - growing seasons.

Answer:

D. Eating fewer processed foods
