Full Title:
Made-in-Alberta - Chapter 1: Ep. 2 "City Farm"
City Farm
At Edmonton's City Farm, they teach city kids about
agriculture in the hopes of improving urban-rural relationships in the
future..
Eating Local
Transporting and storing imported food
is a major contributor to the world's greenhouse gas emissions. Eating
locally-produced food is better for our environment, health and future
food security. How are Albertans learning to get in touch with the land,
even in the city?
Made-in-Alberta
Energy, water and climate, these are hot topics for the 21st Century.
With conventional fuel reserves running out, water tables running low,
and global temperatures running high, many Albertans are finding new
energy solutions. Made-in-Alberta brings their stories to community
television and the world wide web with this innovative new series.
