“Developing a sustainable economy involves more than just a sustainable food system, and the food system involves more than just agriculture. However, because agriculture can have such profound effects on the environment, human health, and the social order, it is a critical part of any movement toward sustainability.”
Quote from: Center for a Livable Future, 'How Sustainable Agriculture Can Address the Environmental and Human Health Harms of Industrial Agriculture'
