Healthy Food Systems and a Healthy Planet
Healthy Food System
Urban environments would be the place to focus first.
Most of the human population is projected to be urban
Locally grown food. A focus on nutrition and more plant consumption than meat.
Changing cities from dead blocks of concrete into green zones of production and carbon sinks.
Local food means less transportation and emissions.
Globally would be the ideal.
Solutions
End reliance on fossil fuels
Offer the availability to work from home or continue to replace combustion with electric vehicles.
Expand technology to follow Green Path and utilize a mix of solar, tidal, and wind energy to eliminate emissions of energy production
Utilize natural solutions to combat climate change,
I.E. planting Mangrove forests to stop coastal erosion
Indigenous solutions and harmonious balance between human and natural environments/populations.
Establishing safe zones to allow nature to renew, such as bees and pollinators having a no herbicide zone.
Decrease consumption in developed nations
This in turn frees more resources for local use instead of export for profit by destruction
Healthy Planet
Stable consumption and renewal of resources
Utilizing natural systems to offset climate catastrophe
Mangrove Reforestation to prevent coastal erosion.
Operates within Planetary Boundaries
Human well being is the focus instead of materialistic gain
Access to food and healthcare
Expansion of rights and education to the global population
Human Drivers of Climate Change
GHG emissions from reliance on fossil fuels
Overconsumption, beef production in Brazil destroys the rain forest to meet demand in developed nations.
This is also an example of an injustice due to a driver.
Pollution
Toxic spills, such as the recent chemical spill in Ohio.
This was magnified by mismanagement with a burnoff instead of cleanup.
Plastic Waste within the oceans
