Is the cheap price we pay for non-organic food worth the health risks?

13 Dec Is the cheap price we pay for non-organic food worth the health risks?

Almost 400 pesticides are used in conventional farming but only 26 have been approved for organic farming. As we already know, organic food is healthier and tastier but is hard to afford. Does that mean that people who can’t afford organic food have a higher risk of disease?

I compared the quality and price of food sold in Whole Foods Marked and Sainsbury’s.

I have created a mobile journalism piece and the entry for the competition asks for:

  • A feature story or news report filmed and edited entirely on a mobile device, which excites, intrigues and surprises and demonstrates impact and creativity.
