Answer 1

Eating only local food can cost people their jobs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the attitude of buying only local food is this as a way to stimulate the local economy and increase the supply of jobs in the city, the effect may be the opposite, as the purchase of these foods can increase the unemployment rate.

This is because, if the entire population buys only local food, the entire food transport sector inside and outside the country, could be harmed and people working in this sector will be fired. In addition, large food chains can also fire their employees.
