Food mile
this is the distance the food you are going to eat has travelled to get to your home. The further it has travelled, the more carbon dioxide has gone into the atmosphere, and so the bigger the carbon footprint.
Is it better to eat local non-
organic food, or far-flung
organic? For some food that may be considered essential like bananas, grapes, oranges and avocado, it’s a price that has to be paid; but for cabbage, apple, strawberries?
By growing your own you are reducing your carbon footprint, and very little helps.
