Today much of the food people eat gets transported from farms that are thousands of miles away. Some people believe it would be better for the environment and the economy if people only consumed food produced by local farmers. Would the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?

In todays
world
of technology, it would not be wrong to say that

has become one global village. Everything has become closer and with that,
food
habits have

changed. The advancement of shipping industry has made sure that anything can be sent from one part of

to the other in a time span of 50-60 days maximum. Everything has become more closer, it's easier to travel from one place to another. With
this
flow of information across the globe, people want to have access to things from the different parts of the
world
. The things which were not available in their part of the

during certain periods, now they have access to them by importing from other origins.
