This episode of "Planet Courage" spotlights Mountaineers--current students and alumni--who are working on strengthening the local food system, a food-based climate solution that has many benefits. Strengthening the local food system:
- Reduces food transport and associated greenhouse gas emissions
- Supports regenerative practices that remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and store them in the soil
- Expands access to nutritious foods, contributing to better health in our community
- Supports local jobs and the local economy
