Food And The Environment In Belo Horizonte Brazil And Beyond

By Fletcher Jones

Food is essential for human life, but it also has a significant impact on the environment. The production, transportation, and consumption of food all contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and deforestation. In Belo Horizonte, Brazil, the relationship between food and the environment is particularly complex. The city is home to a large population of people who live in poverty, and many of them rely on unhealthy, processed foods for sustenance. At the same time, Belo Horizonte is also a major agricultural producer, and the city's food system is heavily dependent on pesticides and other chemicals that can harm the environment.
