“We live in a world of plenty, where food production outstrips demand, yet 870 million people are undernourished and childhood stunting is a silent pandemic. To create the future we want, we must correct this inequity. We must ensure access to adequate nutrition for all, double the productivity of smallholder farmers who grow the bulk of food in the developing world, and make food systems sustainable in the face of environmental and economic shocks” UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon
June 5 is World Environment Day and for the third year running Yuppiechef is challenging people to host a meal for friends to raise awareness and donations for Soil for Life.
To acknowledge people taking part, the Yuppiechef team will add a plant to a real plant wall at their offices. To make donations guests can simply look up and click on their hosts plant on the wall.
Head to www.eatfortheearth.com to meet the plants, watch live broadcasts and register a meal.
