Michael Brownlee, cofounder of the nonprofit Local Food Shift Group, issues a call for a revolutionary movement to localize the global food supply and lays out a practical guide for navigating the challenging process of shaping the local or regional food system. Michael Brownlee, cofounder of the nonprofit Local Food Shift Group, issues a clarion call and manifesto for a revolutionary movement to localize the global food supply and lays out a practical guide for those who hope to navigate the challenging process of shaping the local or regional food system. Demonstrating that humanity faces a near-term and prolonged global food crisis, he provides a roadmap for embarking on the process of righting the profoundly unsustainable and already-failing global industrialized food system. Brownlee charts the process by which localization of the global food supply unfolds in communities, regions, and foodsheds and suggests pathways forward that otherwise may remain invisible and unexplored. The book also considers some of the moral, economic, and social dilemmas and thresholds that might come to the fore as the local food shift develops.Product Identifiers
