How much does eating locally-produced food help the climate problem? What are the other potential environmental and social benefits of eating locally-grown/produced food? Do you have a food garden in your school or at home? If not, do you want one?

Very Important!
Eating locally-produced food greatly helps the climate problem. The processing and distribution of food leads to many CO2 emissions. I do not have a garden, but my school does.
I agree, eating local foods have a lot of benefits for a person. For example, eating local honey helps your allergies. Eating local food also cuts out a lot of the extra steps from planes, and trucks, and buses to get the food to the town.
i agree local food are good for people but then you have fast food that makes people sick and sometimes the food that we make locally is not healthy like fried chicken that has oil and your body shouldn't have a lot of oil
I am going to try to reduce my carbon footprint by reducing the food category score. My score for food was extremely high compared to my region. I am going to buy locally grown and organic food in order to reduce my footprint.
I agree with you as well because eating local food reduces the transportation used to get the food from one place to another.
I agree, buying local food or having a garden of your own is very important.
