社區的意義包含了兩個社區,一是生產的社區,二是消費群體的社區,兩者之間的距離要近,簽訂以年為單位的契約,讓消費者與生產者共同承擔生產風險。透過小規模、可持續性的生態農業,每個月配「定量、不定種類」的當季新鮮蔬果,保證食材的新鮮、安全,而非一般市場最在乎的農產品長相好壞。2009年的研究《Small Scale Sustainable Farmers Are Cooling Down The Earth》指出,這樣的生態農業生產模式,比起工業化的農作模式,在10年內有望將生產量加倍。
近年全球對於氣候變遷的關注日益增加,各國紛紛宣布淨零排放(Net Zero Emissions)的目標,聯手應對氣候變遷所帶來的挑戰。淨零排放是指將全球人為排放的溫室氣體量和人為移除的量相抵銷後為零。而「碳捕存再利用技術(Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage,簡稱 CCUS)」技術被視為達成淨零重要的措施之一。
