Planning for post-carbon food systems: opportunities for british columbia Marshall-Smith, Paris

Abstract

Our world is undergoing a great change that is expected to proceed at an increasingly rapid pace for the next 40-50 years. The realities of peak oil are challenging us as individuals and as communities to rethink how our future may unfold and what we would like it to look like. I would like us to re-approach food and the systems that support it, production,distribution and consumption with the everyday actions of our hands and our hearts so that we can further cultivate the spaces between people, place and food. I am interested in transforming our food systems by remembering to listen and intentionally look at how we sustain and are sustained. For me, it is about the relationships we form, the process that takes us forward and the transformation it inspires.
