 September 21 is United Nations International Day of Peace. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon says, "Peace is my main job. Peace doesn’t just happen – it must be nurtured, maintained and defended. I work for peace in many different ways: I mediate between antagonists, urging them to resolve their differences peacefully; I promote tolerance and harmonious relations among countries and peoples; I campaign to stem the tide of deadly disease; and I press for the elimination of extreme poverty, and for a natural environment that can sustain not only this generation, but those to come.
There are many tools in the peacemaker’s kit – diplomacy and human rights; development and disarmament; peacekeeping and peacebuilding – and I use them every single day. One of the purposes of Gratitude Gourmet is to promote Peace in our food systems. People, Animals, and Nature should not suffer in our food systems..food systems should be peaceful and well-planned in order to avoid problems. What are you doing for Peace?
