Food systems, food security and environmental changeIIED
This is a presentation given by Dr John Ingram of Oxford University's Environmental Change Institute (ECI) to a Critical Theme organised by the International Institute for Environment and Development on 12 February 2015.
Dr Ingram leads the Environmental Change Institute's Food Systems Research and Training Programme, which aims to increase understanding of the interactions between food security and environmental change. The programme's research products have been adopted by national and international organisations, including the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and the UK and Dutch governments.
In his presentation, Ingram looked at food system activities and 'planetary boundaries' – the safe operating space for humanity with respect to the earth's biophysical systems. If these planetary boundaries are crossed, then important subsystems, such as a monsoon system, could shift into a new state. Such shifts could have damaging consequences, including undermining the environmental conditions and the natural resource base on which our food security depends.

restoring the soil physical structure and chemical fertility, improving soil organic C and therefore, sustaining the system productivity. Nitrogen fixers and phosphate solubilizer contribute through biological fixation of nitrogen, solubilization of fixed nutrients and enhanced uptake of plant nutrients (Gupta et al., 2003).
INM tries to reduce the need for chemical fertilizers by taking advantages of non-chemical sources of nutrients such as the manures, composts and bio-fertilizers (Gopalasundaram et al., 2012). Bio-fertilizers application not only increases plants growth and yield, but increase soil microbial population and activity; resulting in improved soil fertility (Ramesh et al., 2014). They include free-living bacteria which promote plant growth even in polluted soils. Azospirillum, Azotobacter, Pseudomonas, Bacillus and Thiobacillus are examples of these bacteria (Zahir et al., 2004). Niess (2002) reported that plant growth promoting bacteria reduced the toxicity of heavy metals and increased plant growth and yield.
Intercropping has been in practice for centuries to sustain yield, minimize risk, utilize the lag phase, and improve productivity (Rao, 2000). It reported that physico-chemical changes in soil under pure and alley cropping with Leucaena leucocephala (after six year) and found that alley cropping more suitable than pure crop (Gangwar et al., 2004).
How Can Community Leaders Help Low-Income American Families Overcome Barriers...Samantha Pennington
For families surviving on low-incomes in the US the problem of food insecurity is anything, but simple. The complexity of the interactions between sociological, environmental, economic, and political inequalities make deciphering barriers within the food system a difficult task, but not an impossible one. Extremely effective ways to combat food insecurity which simultaneously chip away at the long standing and powerful system which marginalizes and disenfranchises huge sections of our nation’s population exist. Changing our food system to a more just and equitable one demands building community power at the grassroots level, altering policy to change the day-to-day experiences of low-income American families, and recognizing the deep importance of diversity, inclusion, and collaboration.

Exploring Food Access and Health Disparities
Sarah Buila, Southern Illinois University, Illinois, USA
Abstract: I joined the wellness committee at the counseling center where I worked. We talked about
how to increase our health habits and those of our co-workers. We organized lunch hour walking
parties, got group discounts at a health club and decided to have a potluck luncheon in order to share
our healthy recipes and sample the food. My co-workers talked about recipes that are low in fat, low
insaltandsugarless.Often thismeantartificialsweetenersandfatsubstituteswerepartof theirrecipes.
No one said anything about avoiding processed foods or eating less meat. No one said anything about
eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains or organic and locally grown foods. It was at
this very moment that I realized I was from a different planet. The planet I come from calls for a much
different diet. The planet that I’m from has poor and affluent people alike who are obese. While in
some parts of the world people are starving. Race, class, and gender influence health outcomes. What
we eat is influenced by outside factors and I see people getting further away from the source of all
food, theearth.Food isonecommondenominator inhealthdisparities.Onmyplanet therearedispar-
ities in access to healthy foods. Part of the solution is related to broadening awareness. Coming up
with solutions means coming up with new definitions about what is healthy food, and redefining our
roles as health care practitioners/world citizens. Could it be that there is a diet that is not only good
for you, but good for your global neighbors and the earth?
Keywords: Diet, Health Disparities, Food Access, Global Health
THIS PAPER EXPLORES the relationship between health outcome disparities andaccess to food prefaced on the principle that diet is one of the most important factorsimpacting health. It is not recent news that there are health disparities according to
racial/ethnic, gender, and socio-economic status. Much of the literature which ad-
dresses the problem of health disparities is focused on proving they exist. Identifying causes
for these disparities is a much more complicated endeavor. If we are going to close the gaps
between health disparities it is a worthwhile endeavor. Contributing to the difficulty in
identifying causes is the multifaceted nature of human health and the individual and varying
contexts which support (or don’t support) health and wellbeing. These facets include
heredity, access to health care and disease prevention, lifestyle, stress, and diet. The focus
of this article is on food and health conditions resulting from dietary choices and food
availability.
Health Disparities
Health disparities exist for many different vulnerable populations. Worldwide, poverty is a
significant indicator of health disparities. People who are poor experience a higher prevalence
of chronic disease, higher mortality rates, stress, and lower life expectancy .
Solving the Toxic Food System in America through Systemic Thinking Bianca Esposito
During my Fall 2016 semester of college, I worked with a team of classmates in my Critical Issues in Organizations course to propose a solution to improve the toxic food system by increasing the demand of healthy food. In order to achieve our mission, we plan on altering food marketing strategies through product, placement, promotion, and price.
Darcy Freedman, MPH, PhD, Associate Professor of Epidemiology, Biostatistics, and Social Work at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, will present “Developing, Implementing & Sustaining Healthy Food Incentive Programs at Farmers' Markets.” Dr. Freedman will provide examples where Extension has connected with public health and community health initiatives through healthy food incentive programs. Her presentation will also offer guidance for engaging key stakeholders in healthy food incentive program development as well as challenges and opportunities for this type of intervention.
