Hacking social - Food Matters - Creating sustainable and fair food systems | Building local food systems. The Building Local Food Systems Handbook has been produced to inspire, encourage, and enthuse you to explore, discover and act. The idea of the Handbook is to unpick some the key global food issues: climate change, GMO, peak oil, meat consumption and present some of the very practical actions that are happening around the country to mitigate these problems at a very local level and how you can get involved – as an individual, as a community or perhaps as part of a wider national campaign. The Handbook has been thoroughly researched, written and designed by Food Matters with support from the Local Food Fund. You can preview some pages of the toolkit here.
