Re: Radical rethink' needed on food
Good point Maggy. As fuel oil and transport costs increase we'll see a return to locally grown and seasonal foods anyway. It simply won't be cost-effective to fly green beans from Kenya and suchlike.

A forward-thinking government would be planning for this already by helping to build up our home agriculture..
