The “right to food” has been addressed by many from different perspectives, but this chapter addresses an aspect of that problem that is not often viewed as significant: the centrality of ecological integrity to our environment, and the interface between it and the biological integrity of human beings, hence our survival, health and normal development. Thus we review briefly not only the public health aspects of the issue under consideration, including diet and the negative impacts of the meat industry on both persons and environment, but also the question of soil conditions and the impact of GMOs on agriculture. We conclude this brief survey by proposing ecological integrity and biological integrity as the twin aspect of what ought to be the main focus of the quest for novel instruments and policies intended to implement the right to food, globally.
