THE FOOD TRAVELS THOUSANDS OF MILES FROM FARM TO CONSUMER. SOME PEOPLE THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER FOR OUR ENVIRONMENT AND ECONOMY IF PEOPLE ATE ONLY LOCALLY PRODUCED FOOD. DO YOU THINK THE ADVANTAGES OUTWEIGH THE DISADVANTAGES

The food is indispensable factor for surviving of a human being. Consuming only regional foods is thought by some that to be more advantageous for both economic and environment. In my new, such a move of consuming only locally produced food has more benefits than demerits. As regards the pros, logally grown foods can have a positive impact both on economy and environment. Firstly, When foods need to be sentto long distances, a lot of packaging materials are needed like papers, plastic wraps and raw materials. After deliveries are arrived in distances, these packaging materials are discarded. As a result, it can cause damage to invironment, Secondly, It can reduce carbon emission. While delivering packaging foods transports travel along way which inturn can lead to more traffic pollution. But When foods are organically grown in farms, it means less pollution on environment. And also it can ease long-haul traffic congestio on big roads. What's more, when people eat more organic foods, it can result in high deman iwhich in turn lead to rise in prices which may benefits economy. However, one significant advantage of dependence on organic food is that in certain areas, it would be difficult to find them because they aren't produced everywhere. This limit people from tasting food which aren't locally available. To sum up, advantages of organically produced foods outweigh any potential negatives sides. By opting for such products, people can contribute to a more sustainable future on economy and environment by reducing carbon emissions, supporting farmers and despite some negligible drawbacks.
