What is Sustainable Food?

This site aims to outline a whole range of issues and points of contact, and what you can do to help promote sustainable food. What you can do depends on your level, your skills, and your involvement in terms of time and money. With others we can do more. You can identify where best you can influence events in your organisation, in order to promote sustainable food.

None of us can become “more sustainable” on our own. Yet we can all help to make a contribution. We work in partnership as envisaged at the "Earth Summit 2002". We can identify our roles and work out what we can do, together.

We can all do something different that contributes to the overall target of "sustainability".
