Many foods are shipped from far away. Some people think that eating local food is more environmentally and economically. Do you think the advantages outweigh its disadvantages?

Nowadays,

for some consumers. Some of them believe that eating

economic

effects. Both merits and demerits with my opinion will be explained in the following lines. On one hand, many

food

consumers are of the belief that there is a variety of

healthy

meals around the world and it is better to select the healthier items and import them.

In other words

, some countries are famous for healthy

corps

crops

which are not

avialble

available

in other regions;

therefore

, importing valuable items may be

peneficial

For example

, some

have a variety of tasty and healthy fruits,

such

as banana and mango, which are not

avilable

obtainable or accessible and ready for use or service

available

in other countries.

Thus

, importing the missing items may be valuable for the consumers.

On the other hand

, despite the fact that tasty and

healthier

healthy

foods can provide a better lifestyle, it may negatively affect the environment and the

economy

. To illustrate, the long distances of transportation will cause air pollution because of

emitions

the act of emitting; causing to flow forth

emissions

from ships and/or trucks;

in addition

, importing cost, including goods' prices and transportation, may negatively affect the

economy

.

For instance

Therefore

for long distances has
