PROBLEM SOLVING

Climate change disrupts the carbon sink

With climate change, natural carbon sinks like forests and oceans are being disrupted, leading to an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. This exacerbates the greenhouse effect, causing further warming of the planet.

Impacts our food supply

Climate change affects food production through extreme weather events, changes in precipitation patterns, and shifts in growing seasons, leading to reduced crop yields and food shortages.

Impacts the small farmers

Small-scale farmers are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change due to their reliance on rain-fed agriculture and limited resources to adapt to changing conditions, leading to decreased agricultural productivity and income.

Impacts consumer demand for chemical free food

As awareness of the environmental and health impacts of conventional agriculture grows, consumers are increasingly seeking chemical free food, which is produced without synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, and often has lower environmental impact.

Impacts our environment

The environmental impact of food production includes land use, water consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and biodiversity loss. Climate change exacerbates these impacts, making sustainable food production practices increasingly important for environmental conservation.

Why doctors recommend chemical free

Some doctors recommend chemical free food due to concerns about pesticide residues in conventional produce and potential health effects from long-term exposure, although scientific evidence on the health benefits of chemical free food is still debated.
