It is usually believed that fresh food is always a previlege of contry drawller who lives rightly alongside the farms. Today, this idea is totally mistaken. By means of advanced transportation and fresh-keeping technology, food can be delivered to virtually anywhere in an extreamly fast manner. This remarkble development of food tranpotation greatly improved the living standard of city drawllers. For they are able to enjoy the fresh food irrespective of the location they are. In addition, transporting food to other places may have a positive economical impact on the associated industries, like farming, beverage, traveling as well as transpotation. Apparently, people are willing to pay more money for the rare foods. While, in an attempt to make the food transpotation being happen, most of us can hardly realize how much prise we have paied. First, in order to keep the freshness of food, a great many of containers, airplanes and all sorts of devices are applied, these appliences are usually energy consumption intensive. Inspite of the freshness, some rare food such as sea foods are very expensive which is more than ordinary poeple can afford. Also, if the food is not sale, they are likely decay quickly and finally thrown away causing a huge resource waists. In my point of view, I would like to support the development of food transpotation, for it truely adds colour to our life. It is obvious that the positive return is far beyond the negtive loss.
