by Missy on Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

“Go Local” is a phrase you probably hear alot these days in various newspapers, mags, blogs, and sites.

What is the deal with going local, buying local, and using local. Simple, the reasons for this buzz phrase, is because of the less your food or products has traveled the less energy used in that transport, and also in the case of food, the fresher it mostly is. For example, fruit and veggies, local and organic is the best, no pesticides or chemicals are used in organic produce and local means it is grown right there close to your residence and has not had enough time to lose vital and healthy nutrients.

Fun Factoid:
(borrowed from Ideal Bite)
“The record for world’s farthest (and least eco) food delivery was set
in 2004 when a vegetarian supreme pizza traveled 10,532 mi from a
Domino’s in London, England to Melbourne, Australia”.
