A secure food system is one that affords people and nations - in both the present and future - the capabilities to prosper and lead long, happy, and healthy lives.

But the author shows that these cheap calories have also come at great cost, to the environment, individual and societalEarthscan food and agriculture.Food securitySocial aspectsHuman securityAgricultureEnvironmental aspectsFood securitySocial aspects.Human security.AgricultureEnvironmental aspects.363.8Carolan Michael S.769486MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779680203321Reclaiming food security3813498UNINA
