Our topic is: FOOD AND THE ENVIRONMENT We have been learning how buying local food can benefit the environment. We hope we can convince you too!!

First of all, you should buy local because transporting food from other countries means we burn lots of fossil fuels. Here is some more information.

What impact does fossil fuels have on earth? Since Petrol is something made from fossil fuels we burn fuel when we transport food on vehicles which is damaging our environment and causing global warming.
