Blog Action Day is an annual event in which all bloggers around the world post about the same topic during the same day (this year it's October 16) - and this year it all revolves around FOOD!!
This event aims to increase awareness about hot topics worth discussing globally, topics that affect us all and impact our lives everyday, hoping that such discussions would generate new ideas, plans and actions, kind of like a global brainstorming! Since 2007, topics such as poverty, water, environment and climate change in which more than 10,000 bloggers have participated!
So why FOOD?!
Food is part of our daily lives, part of our culture and identities!
The topic of food is broad: from celebrating feasts, cooking, famines, obesity, food politics, food production, food chemistry, to the nutrients it provides us with or the toxins and unhealthy components it may contain, I mean the list is endless!
