The problem with supermarkets and mass agriculture
I do not know what the situation is outside of Croatia, but there is an occuring pattern in the world. People today buy their food in supermarkets and that truly is convenient. Very few people (especially in Europe, North America and parts of Asia) grow their own food. Few of us would know how to survive in the wilderness which is tragic.
The food that we eat is not the same as before when people grew everything on their own. Many additives are added and the food that we eat is full of sugar, salt and fat. For example, a chocolate bar has very little cocoa in it. It is mostly sugar that an average chocolate bar contains.
I am not saying that before it was better. It is hard to grow everything (plants and animals) on your own. People were malnourished which is horrible.
But, there should be a balance. Mass agriculuture is responsible for so many ecological problems, including the ever shrinking percentage of potable water as well as the lack of biodiversity. I think that we should reform agriculture and that we should teach people how to grow their own food.
I know that my proposal is fantasy, but it is not all about money.
