Every part of the #globalfoodsystem is now highly concentrated in the hands of a few corporations, which have been consolidating both vertically & horizontally. The US food system has consolidated nearly twice as much as the overall economic system

Food for Us, Succour for the Planet - We CAN do something about Climate Change We can produce enough nourishing food for all without destroying the planet’s health but we need to change how we do it!

Modern agriculture is making us ill - too many people are not eating well. We need healthy food for all, and a system that works.

Please share my blog widely. The sooner we move to sustainable diets the better.

Figure 3. Benefits of a global shift to a plant-based (flexitarian) diet: Diagram shows flexitarian diet components (mostly plants) and its benefits for climate, biodiversity and human health, reducing noncommunicable disease burden and risk of zoonoses.

Essential reading from Wegner et al in @thelancet.com. Once again, the science is clear: a global shift to predominantly plant-based diets is urgently needed to safeguard environmental & public health doi.org/10.1016/j.ec....
