Industrial agriculture isn’t merely a food story.
Food → soil → water → health → biodiversity → energy → economics.

Transportation → land use → housing → air quality → health → energy → community.
Plastic isn’t merely packaging.
Materials → petroleum → manufacturing → consumption → waste → oceans → food chain.
