"It's so easy to stand up on a stage and say things are urgent, it doesn't change anything. Maybe it brings some attention to it, but it really doesn't change anything. The most urgent thing is to pay attention to what needs to be done slower." Corinna Hawkes of @fao.org on @tabledebates.bsky.social

🎙️ Corinna Hawkes (Director of the @fao.org Division of Food Systems and Food Safety) spoke with the Feed Podcast about what it actually means to 'take a systems approach' to food.

With the Farm to Fork Strategy, the EU made great strides toward implementing a true #FoodSystems approach.
Sadly, progress has stalled. This new @fao.org report is a timely reminder of why it matters — and how to get back on track! 💪

At a time when the world is unmoved in the face of the mass #starvation of #children in real time, @michaelfakhri.bsky.social's report on 'Starvation and the right to food, with an emphasis on the Palestinian people’s food sovereignty' has never been more relevant docs.un.org/en/A/79/171

Better agrifood systems will not emerge from business as usual.

They will emerge from #SystemsApproach that is already beginning to signal progress in countries around the world.

With food price volatility higher than ever & corporate control of our food system on the rise, we cannot talk about food sovereignty without talking about food distribution. Check out the new 'Supermarket Watch' bulletin produced by FIAN, GRAIN & StreetNet grain.org/e/7248

🧵 The EU’s Vision for #Agriculture & #Food could have supported a bold, systemic shift toward fair, resilient, and sustainable #FoodSystems.

But it isn't, and we tell you why 🧵👇

The world produces more than enough #food to feed everyone.

Yet it is shamefully misallocated.

BigAg firms make more profit by exporting food for animal feed, biofuels, or ultra-processed foods, than selling it to poor people. 1/3 of all food is simply wasted.

Small-scale fishers in Indonesia face declining catches as illegal trawlers deplete fish stocks in near-shore waters, violating exclusion zone regulations.

Trawling is widely practiced due to weak law enforcement, with local authorities citing budget constraints for lack of patrols.

What a lucid analysis! "The dopamine cartel is now aggravating our worst social problems—in education, in workplaces, and in private life. But you will hardly hear about this—because too many people are making far too much money from the dopamine culture."

📖 Here's a small glossary of terms to help you read the news:
Palestinian prisoners = Palestinian hostages
Israeli Defense Forces = Israeli Occupation Forces
Israel-Hamas conflict = Palestinian genocide
Security wall = Apartheid wall

Something about this has really got to me. It is just such a slap in the face - this is what we're worth, is it? Arguably the largest connector of human beings in the world, flooded with literal friction between each and every one by a billionaire addicted to growth. Death cult shit. Disgraceful.

I can’t emphasise this enough:

You need to watch 2073 by Asif Kapadia.

If you want to be a part of the resistance you will need to be sufficiently horrified as well as informed.

It’s in selected cinemas now.
