Publisher Description: Do we have the right to eat wrongly? As the world's agricultural, environmental, and nutritional needs intersect--and often collide--how can consumers, nations, and international organizations work together to reverse the damage by changing how we make, distribute, and purchase food? Can such changes in practice and policy reverse the trajectories of the biggest global crises impacting our world: the burden of chronic diseases, the consequences of climate change, and the systemic economic and social inequities that exist within and among nations? describes the often destructive path that foods take from farms and seas through their processing, distribution, marketing, purchasing and waste management sites |
