It has <\/span>gained popularity over the past ten years. However, while this movement helps the community’s <\/span>economy and ensures food security, it also raises a number of concerns that could have a negative <\/span>impact on the neighborhood in the event of natural disasters. These concerns include potential harm to <\/span>the environment, effects on local farmers, and the fact that eating locally produced food can be more <\/span>expensive. <\/span>Locally produced chemically-cultivated foods may be less expensive than organic foods and may <\/span>benefit the local economy, but they can damage farmworkers, the ground water, the soil food web, and <\/span>consumers over time by leaving poisonous residues on their food. The Locavore Movement has an <\/span>adverse impact on farmers worldwide in addition to the environment. <\/span>Another drawback that consumers should take into account is the low nutritional content of the <\/span>food produced by the<\/span>locavore<\/span>movement. According to a statement in Source B, food starts to lose <\/span>nutrients as soon as it is harvested. So, produce that travels a shorter distance is more likely to be closer <\/span>to its nutritional peak. Is eating locally produced food really worth it if it has poor nutritional value? “<\/span>To <\/span>choose a locally grown apple over an apple trucked in from across the country might seem easy. But this <\/span>decision ignores economies of scale. To take an extreme example, a shipper sending a truck with 2,000 apples <\/span>over 2,000 miles would consume the same amount of fuel per apple as a local farmer who takes a pickup 50 <\/span>miles to sell 50 apples at his stall at the green market. The critical measure here is not food miles but apples <\/span>per gallon[…]<\/span>” (Source C). <\/span>The distance is a big obstacle to the locavore movement since it may deter individuals from <\/span>joining the movement altogether. A person will most likely decide against joining the locomotive <\/span>movement, for instance, because of the distance and the fact that supermarkets are often closer (Source <\/span>G). Yet, it also harms the environment due to the extra petroleum required by individuals who are <\/span>prepared to forgo shorter trips. <\/span>In conclusion, while the locavore movement has its benefits, there are also significant <\/span>drawbacks for the community, including the potential harm to the environment, the impact on farmers, <\/span>the low nutritional value of the majority of foods, and the distance. make it look like this.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
