The Importance of the Food We Eat

Junk food has become a staple in our society. We no longer pay great attention to our food, or where it comes from, because now, due to extensive agriculture, we no longer dedicate all our time to finding food and instead have started abusing it. We eat out of boredom and overeat because of large portions of food at reastaurants, whilst we that each item of food we consume has an environmental impact.

Inhabitants of cities need to be educated on healthy eating and build up a connection with the food they eat, therefore everyone should help in rooftop gardens. Meat and animal related products should be more expensive, which would discourage people from consuming them as they are unhealthy and have a devastating impact on the environment. In contrast local products should be sold at more reasonable prices.
