The world is getting more and more interconnected. This means that different sectors often have a direct impact on each other. This is exactly what is happening to the food production and distribution chain: the agricultural and farming industries have their own (often overlooked) consequences on the climate. The high demand of ready-to-eat food, and the huge supply of the modern food distribution chain is burdening the environment and negatively impacting climate change. For instance, farming livestock for meat consumption has a heavier impact on the environment than crops. Nonetheless, crops and produce can also have a negative impact on the environment.
For these reasons, children, families and the whole school environment should be educated to healthy eating attitudes. Indeed, this training course session will show how unhealthy eating affects climate change, presenting alternative possibilities and the application of educational programs to promote healthy lifestyle.
