FOOD SOURCES AND YOU
Where does your food come from and how does it affect you?
Introduction
about what we eat Facts
And what can we do? Why care?
a video about Chickens Watch
Food Facts 1. Organic farming is increasing by 20 per cent a year in France, Japan and the
United States. 2. Sixty million people (the same number who starve to death worldwide every
year) could be fed with the savings in grains and soybeans if Americans reduced their meat consumption by 10 per cent.
3. Between 30 and 40 per cent of kitchen waste in Japan is leftover food; 14 per cent is still just as it was when it was purchased.
4. Every day, 790 million people do not get enough food. 5. Studies of human breast milk have found traces of 350 contaminants, including
87 dioxin and dioxin-like compounds. 6. More and more people - including some 150 million people in Europe - are either
becoming vegetarians or reducing their consumption of meat. 7. The British Soil Association reported in 2003 that 75 per cent of British babies
now eat organic baby food on a regular basis. 8. Number of animals eaten in Japan in a single year:
• Pigs: 20 million • Chickens: 800 million • Bovines (cows, etc.): 1.5 million
