The following statements might help you. Do you agree or disagree?
- We get our food from a global market – much of it comes from very far away.
- We don't usually know exactly where our food came from, or how it was grown or processed or transported.
- We rely heavily on government regulation, business responsibility, and the judicial system to ensure the safety of our food, because consumers usually don't have any knowledge of the specifics.
- The global food system relies heavily on energy from fossil fuels and produces a lot of waste.
