Healthy food should leave the planet healthy too…

Of major importance when making food choices are the ethical issues around food acquisition, production, and retailing. Food production should have as little negative impact as possible on both the environment and the people involved in producing the food. To this end, Good Food and Health upholds the consumption of:

  • Fair Trade
  • local and in-season produce
  • minimal use of pesticides and artificial fertilisers
  • free range farmed meat and dairy products
  • sustainable fish stocks, which are caught in a manner that causes least harm to other marine life or the marine environment
  • farmed fish and seafood, only where the farming does minimal damage to the environment or local population

See 'Links' for organisations which support sustainable food production.
