Without food security we become more dependent on importing food, suffer from increasing costs, and we lose the skills necessary to produce healthy and nutrient dense food.
Cities dwellers sometimes forget how vast the countryside is, and that we can explore our natural environment freely.
Connecting with the natural world can increase our fitness, lower our stress levels and can help with our mental wellbeing.
Use it or lose it, the choice is ours.
Mankind, plants, animals, insects, and microorganisms co-exist and maintain balance allowing life to thrive in a wonderful natural ecosystem.
We risk upsetting this balance with pesticides, herbicides, medicines, and tampering with the code of life endangering this delicate balance.
We need open discussion on renewables and Net-Zero policy, so we continue to maintain energy security, meet the needs of industry and domestic supply.
Our elected representatives in government work on behalf for the people, and offer a gateway to resolve grievances.
Often these representatives get preoccupied with policy and don't see real world negative impacts.
We the people can help create better policy by engaging with them.
Proposed venue: The Thornton Room - Ground Floor, West Offices (G039)
