World Council of Churches general secretary Rev. Dr. Olav Fykse Tveit presented these “ten commandments” to a January 2016 World Economic forum session on how food choices can become a catalyst for positive change. Here they are:
Tveit said “It is important that we acknowledge the efforts, investments and very lives of living plants and creatures sacrificed to provide food for our tables. Food is sacred, as it is a gift of God to sustain our lives through sharing, celebration, gratitude, sacrifice and renewal. In our common home - - the Earth - - we have to work together to limit climate change and other barriers to food security, so that food can be made available to all today and in the years to come.”
