Economics
In fact, there is a close connection between everyday activities such as "eating" and global issues such as population growth, poverty, inequality, urbanization, climate change, and the SDGs. Using the framework of economics, this book explains in an easy-to-understand way how "food" affects us and the world. It is a future-oriented economics book that considers what kind of world we want to leave and how we challenge various issues based on the latest research and information. Food is a special existence in economics. From the viewpoint of production, it is special in the sense that nature grows it. From the viewpoint of consumption, it is the only product that is taken into the body, and it is special in the sense that it connects the inside and outside of the body (the world). And the act of "eating" also connects the present and the future. For example, if we destroy the environment by eating a rough diet now, the future will not be able to change. The main purpose of this book is to convey that ordinary and casual diet, which is accumulated by the population of the earth, has a great influence on the world economy and environmental problems. On the contrary, even small improvements of individuals can lead to great improvements of society as a whole. The main purpose of this book is not only an introduction to "eating economics," but also to propose solutions (challenges, challenges) to various existing problems through learning.
