A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 030930783X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
How we produce and consume food has a bigger impact on Americans' well-being than any other human activity. The food industry is the largest sector of our economy; food touches everything from our health to the environment, climate change, economic inequality, and the federal budget. From the earliest developments of agriculture, a major goal has been to attain sufficient foods that provide the energy and the nutrients needed for a healthy, active life. Over time, food production, processing, marketing, and consumption have evolved and become highly complex. The challenges of improving the food system in the 21st century will require systemic approaches that take full account of social, economic, ecological, and evolutionary factors. Policy or business interventions involving a segment of the food system often have consequences beyond the original issue the intervention was meant to address. A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System develops an analytical framework for assessing effects associated with the ways in which food is grown, processed, distributed, marketed, retailed, and consumed in the United States. The framework will allow users to recognize effects across the full food system, consider all domains and dimensions of effects, account for systems dynamics and complexities, and choose appropriate methods for analysis. This report provides example applications of the framework based on complex questions that are currently under debate: consumption of a healthy and safe diet, food security, animal welfare, and preserving the environment and its resources. A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System describes the U.S. food system and provides a brief history of its evolution into the current system. This report identifies some of the real and potential implications of the current system in terms of its health, environmental, and socioeconomic effects along with a sense for the complexities of the system, potential metrics, and some of the data needs that are required to assess the effects. The overview of the food system and the framework described in this report will be an essential resource for decision makers, researchers, and others to examine the possible impacts of alternative policies or agricultural or food processing practices.

ISBN:
Category : Grandparent and child
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Across America, an increasing number of people are becoming victims of "crack" & other addictive drugs. The destructive effects of addiction have rendered many parents unable to fulfill their obligations & have left grandparents with the responsibility of raising their grandchildren. Dr. Poe focuses in depth on the enormous adjustments that grandparents must make as they struggle to rescue these innocent children from repeating the self-destructive cycle of their parents. Among many other critical issues, she discusses anger, resentment, social isolation, & helplessness that these grandparents & grandchildren feel; the postponement, sometimes forever, of grandparents' cherished personal goals due to the needs of their grandchildren; & the difficulties caused by the grandparents' failing health & diminishing finances. This informative & thought-provoking book should be helpful to anyone, whether professional or participant, who is any way involved with or concerned about this social tragedy. Dr. Poe is a Licensed Marriage, Family, & Child Therapist in Berkeley, California.
