Description: 

Report about regional food systems and reduction of fossil energy and greenhouse gas emissions relative to national / global food systems. When logistics is well organized and sufficient volume can be realized, a reduction in the number of food vehicle kilometers is also practically feasible. The extent of the reduction in consumption, emissions and kilometers is highly dependent on local / regional conditions and the composition of the product package in the specific chain.
