Discusses how urban agriculture can help revolutionize the environmentally unsustainable modern food industry, providing evidence of thriving urban farms within "food deserts" and describing the global movement towards alternative food production.--Source inconnue.
"This edited collection advances the discussion of ethical food production and the many elements that have to be balanced in order to achieve it. A large group of contributors from academia and industry prepare the food production industry for a world in which "ethical" or "sust…
In the United States, food is abundant and cheap but loaded with hidden costs to the environment, human health, animal welfare, and the people who work in our food systems. The country's current food production systems lack diversity in crops and animals and are intensified but …
