Our food system has unsustainable growth. Moreover, eating cheap pushes increased soil & health costs to the future. Dumping excess/cheap food makes economic sense. Add compounded feedback loops, subsidies and dependencies of just a few crops & we are in to hit a triple wall 1/5
Sound scientific data-based recommendation is to climb up to the wall is to purposefully increase food prices, force crop diversification & remove subsidies. Build resilience, mitigate effects & finance increased costs and adaptation of env/ag/health. ~A food Kyoto protocol. 2/5
