Food should be respected or else we just feed into a system of global consumerism- use, abuse, throw away, both in relation to what we put in our mouths, but also to the people in our lives. I am inspired by people like Jane Goodall and David Attenborough who try to create a different focus for humanity. What happened this year with the pandemic, really shows us we are not in harmony, and not at peace with the Earth.
