Food-Sustainability Summit Summary


The F.U.N. Party and the P.A. Party gathered today in a summit to discuss food sustainability and security, in order to help our citizens be the healthiest they can be. Currently, there are many chemical pesticides and fertilizers in our food products, which makes our diets extremely filled with processed, and unhealthy products. Thus, resulting in the rapidly increasing obesity rates in the children of today. These food products provide minimal benefit, and create detrimental long-term effects. Our party is extremely concerned by this, as we envision a healthy and happy society for the future. More specifically, the P.A Party will create change by informing citizens of these harmful chemicals, in order for them to make educated choices on what they are consuming for themselves and their families, as well as promote local farmer’s markets to improve the local economy and support local businesses.
Much like us, the F.U.N party agrees that we should start putting taxes on harmful pesticides and promote Canadian farms. This will ensure that people are getting healthy and safe food products that not only taste good, but assist in improving the economy. The F.U.N party however just wants to take shortcuts by taxing companies that use harmful pesticides and hope that this will fix the problem. We, the P.A. Party, are going to ensure that those businesses that get taxed find other ways to continue to produce and manage their sales in a better eco-friendly way. More specifically, we will fulfill this by letting people know the exact ingredients that are going into their foods, in order to aid people in making their own educational choices as well as provide incentive in the form of business for companies. This will help them to improve their ways and stop putting these harmful chemicals in our food that are known to be the cause harmful diseases such as cancer. We are going to stand by our local farmers and businesses in order to establish that citizens are as healthy as they can possibly be.
