Sustainability

Sustainable food practice is the ability to provide for the needs of the world’s current population without damaging the ability of future generations to provide for themselves.

When a process is sustainable, it can be carried out over and over without negative environmental effects or impossible high costs to anyone involved. The essence of this concept is looking at the long term impact of our actions with dealing with our short term needs. In short, sustainable food practices should meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
