The purpose of this WebQuest is to get you start thinking about the distance your meal has travelled before having been eaten. This way, you will be more aware of the impact this journey has on the environment.

In order to make other people more aware of the bad impact that foods’ transportation has got on the environment, you have decided to create a 2-page flyer to be displayed in the hallway of your school and to distribute to your school mates, teachers and staff. To provide a concrete example on how you can contribute to reduce this impact, your flyer will also contain a meal that has reduced food miles.

Together with your classmates, it will be your job to do some researches and then to design this flyer for committing your school community to reduce their food miles and its impact.
