摘要：

Most people rely on supermarkets, and these megastoresdominate our food economy. They are part of a system that depends on large-scale agriculture and production, smooth-flowing international food trade and fast turnaround times. But what happens when system vulnerabilities are exposed and they break down? What catches our fall? We need a resilient food system. This means going beyond the ecological idea of resilience as merely survival during times of stress, and instead proactively building a food system that can both respond quickly to changing circumstances and act as a safety net.
