FOOD

The way that our planet is growing in population while destroying the ground it needs to feed these people means that there is a serious food crisis. The process of feeding the planet is stripping the soil of nutrients, releasing more CO2 emissions than the automotive industry, and yet, a large portion of the planet's people are starving. Deciding to lead a more sustainable life is simple.

 

While farming is depicted as a beautiful thing, it is an inhumane process. People are told that this is the only way to feed the world's population, but there is another way. A way that the world can eat and maintain it is health at the same time.

 

Sustainable Agriculture:

"the production of food, fiber, or other plant or animal products using farming techniques that protect the environment, public health, human communities, and animal welfare"(Sustainable Table, 2015).
