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?

I agree, you can grow amazing homegrown plants yourself. When you grow your own food, you are able to have a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables without all the pesticides; self grown food and plants tend to be better than store bought. Not only that, you are able to tract everything you use, so you know you aren't wasting anything unnecessary. Growing your own food helps lower the carbon emissions from transportation, and reduces water runoff. A great way to grow plants is using a system called hydroponics! Plants are able to grow 25% quicker, and generally produce 30% more than plants grown in regular soil. Hydroponics is also a great way to save water; you can save up to 70-90% more water than soil.
