I seem to be hearing and reading a lot these days about the green new deal and how it relates - or doesn't - to agriculture and the food system. The current environmental crisis is not about only greenhouse gases and climate change. A systems approach is clearly needed. One that integrates global vision with local wisdom; one that has room for knowledge from science, critical use of technology, and agroecological principles; one that considers access to land, fair wages, and better diets for the world's poor.
This article from Nature makes some good points and raises some questions.
