Unsustainable Food Choices - Coggle Diagram
Unsustainable Food Choices
Community Level(RP)
Stakeholders: Students, Canteen Vendors, RP administration
Limited availability of sustainable food options in canteens (e.g., limited local produce, focus on processed foods)
Pricing of sustainable options may not be competitive with non-sustainable options
Inefficient waste management practices (e.g., lack of composting programs, single-use packaging)
Lack of awareness campaigns promoting sustainable food choices within RP
Impacts
Individual Level: Students default to less sustainable options due to limited availability and convenience.
Society Level: Contributes to national inefficiencies in the food supply chain.
Worldwide Level: Increases reliance on unsustainable global food systems
Worldwide Level
Stakeholders: Multinational Corporations (Food processing companies, Supermarket chains, Transportation and logistics companies) International Organizations (FAO, WFP, UNEP) Producer Countries (Governments, Farmers, Agricultural cooperatives)
Alarming global food waste statistics
Climate change impacting food production (e.g., extreme weather events affecting harvests)
International trade agreements potentially hindering sustainable practices (e.g., prioritizing low-cost imports over local production)
Lack of global cooperation on sustainable food systems
Impacts
Individual Level: Increased pressure on affordability and availability of food.
Community Level: Limits options for sourcing sustainable food within RP.
Society Level: Hinders national efforts to promote sustainable food systems
Society Level (Singapore)
Stakeholders: Government Agencies ( AVA, SFA) Consumer Groups: (Environmental NGOs, Consumer advocacy organizations)
Government policies might not adequately support sustainable agriculture (e.g., insufficient subsidies for local farmers)
Consumer demand for sustainable options may be low (leading to limited market incentives for vendors)
Inefficiencies in the national food supply chain (e.g., reliance on imported food, long-distance transportation)
Lack of national education campaigns promoting sustainable food choices
Imapcts
Individual Level: Limited access to affordable sustainable options hinders individual choices.
Community Level: Discourages canteens and RP from prioritizing sustainability.
Worldwide Level: Contributes to global food waste and unsustainable practices.
Individual level
Stakeholder: Myself, RP Students
Lack of knowledge about sustainable food options (e.g., seasonal produce, local farms)
Prioritizing convenience over sustainability (e.g., grabbing fast food instead of preparing meals)
Cost concerns (sustainable options might be perceived as expensive)
Unwillingness to change established eating habits
Impacts
Community Level: Low demand for sustainable options in canteens discourages vendors from offering them.
Society Level: Low consumer demand weakens market incentives for sustainable agriculture.
Worldwide Level: Increased reliance on unsustainable practices to meet demand.
