How To Feed The World And Save The Planet

October 29, 2025 Helena Norberg-Hodge and Henry Coleman, Resilience. , , ,
Awareness about the destructiveness of the global food economy has become so widespread that large institutions are now forced to address it in the open. At the FAO Summit, the UN hyped a “transformation” of the global food system, and gave the floor to voices critical of globalised supply chains and corporate-led farming. Even big businesses have become remarkably proficient at speaking the language of “regenerative,” “diverse,” “local solutions” and “farmer-led.” But, in today’s world, rhetoric has been divorced from reality. Sure enough, if you follow the money instead of the language, you see a very different kind of transformation underway.

Health Activists Picket Against High Cost Of Nutritious Food

On World Food Day, October 16, the People’s Health Movement (PHM) South Africa organized a picket in front of the National Parliament to protest the high cost of healthy and nutritious food in the country. While the South African Constitution guarantees the right to food, PHM South Africa argued that only the wealthy can afford healthy meals today. “The soaring prices of nutritious food have placed it beyond the reach of millions, forcing many to resort to cheaper, ultra-processed foods,” they said. Ultra-processed foods, which have been linked to a long list of non-communicable diseases, including cancer and diabetes, make this a pressing social justice issue, the picket organizers noted.
