Are "Climatarians" The Latest Foody Trend?

The New York Times recently put out its Top 15 list of food related words for 2015.

They were typically ridiculous. "Cuisonomane" is another word for "foodie" if you just want to be snooty about the term. "Hangry" is when you're so hungry you're angry.

The most interesting word was "climatarian," defined as "a diet whose primary goal is to reverse climate change. This inclucdes eating locally produced food (to reduce energy spent on transportation). choosing pork or poultry instead of beef and lamb (to limit gas emissions) and using every part of ingrediets (apple cores, cheese rinds, etc) to limit food waste."

I don't know if the word "climatarian" will catch on, but in one way or another, I think all of us will at some point become climatarians in one form or another.
