A good summary of where we are today when it comes to the fair pricing of food, specifically meat and dairy. Is the tax on meat, dairy, cows, livestock coming?

Worth watching it and also checking their website for further information, many examples of research, experiments, policies and plans from around the world.

Biggest culprits: #meat, #dairy (both production and consumption) and #UltraProcessedFood.

Agrifood systems

Agrifood systems encompass the primary production of food and non-food agricultural products, as well as in food storage, aggregation, post-harvest handling, transportation, processing, distribution, marketing, disposal and consumption. Within agrifood systems, food systems comprise all food products that originate from crop and livestock production, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture, and from other sources such as synthetic biology, and that are intended for human consumption.
