The future of good food in China (trnscript)
Summary
“After all, we do not inherit the earth from our ancestors. We borrow it from our children”.
This speaker’s thought is really true and most of the people don't think or they forget it.
The speaker said that in China, everyone and everything are in a hurry. Especially about food, growing more and selling more food need chemicals and pesticides, and it harms people’s bodies and grounds.
She tells us that it must be time to need being patient to clean our earth and to prepare healthy food for our children.
Patience doesn't mean to have the ability to wait but to know how to act while waiting.
She works to bring healthy food in China which is a difficult country to be patient.
I think that now, Japan also needs patience, Japanese people are called patient, though.
The way that government uses country's money clearly creates big debts that our children have to pay.
We should think what we have to do now more.
Pay loans back for our children, clean our Earth, prepare healthy food and pass
batons to our children.
