Help Save Your Planet! Our World is Changing. Fact. Farms are becoming bigger and bigger as more food is needed for the growing population. When land is cleared for farming, habitats are destroyed and soil can become infertile. Then the food has to be stored and transported, which costs money and causes pollution. We can slow down these changes. Fact. It’s not all doom and gloom! We just need to understand what’s happening. If everyone wasted less food, then there would be more to go round and fewer farms would be need. Plus, if food were bought locally, then there would be fewer food miles. Small efforts make a big difference. Fact. Fascinating facts explaining all the ins and outs of food and farming. Glossary to explain new and difficult words.
