Originally Published 1 year ago — by NPR
Photographer George Steinmetz uses drones to capture 'foodscapes' from around the world, showcasing the intersection of modern industrial food production and traditional agricultural practices. His book, "Feed the Planet," features images from six continents, highlighting both the mechanization of food production and the environmental impacts, such as deforestation in Brazil and overfishing in Mauritania. Steinmetz's work aims to balance the marvel of increased productivity with the need to preserve natural ecosystems.
