Eating locally grown food immensely helps the climate problem.  It does so by reducing the transportation. if you are buying something that is locally grown from a food store, you are still adding to the problem because the farmers need to drive over the produce, the supermarket needs to keep them ripe by using cooling systems, and you need to drive to the food store. Getting food from a farmer's market is the next best thing because they don't need to use a cooling system while they are selling. The best way is to grow your own food, because it involves zero transportation. There is a community garden in my neighborhood where I get all my vegetables, this is helpful because it is reducing my carbon footprint and giving back to the community.

I agree that people should buy locally grown food and that it will help the environment. I think it will help the environment of people did grow their own food but realistically that is not an option for everyone. Some people live in an area where they can't grow their own food or they don't have the time. I think it is good  to promote buying locally grown food, and helping the environment.
