Article Synopsis
- The current food system is bad for the environment, causing climate change and loss of animal species, so we need to change how we eat, especially with the help of young people.
- The FLY project studies how young people, particularly in the Netherlands, can develop sustainable eating habits and how these habits can spread among friends and community.
- The project uses a mix of research methods like reviews of existing studies, focus groups to understand youth challenges, and surveys to track changes in their eating behaviors over time.

Percept Mot Skills
December 1996
The inside of a picture of a uniformly gray tube drawn with black circles appears lighter than the outside. Coren and Komoda, who first described this illusion, argued that observers take illumination into account to infer that the inside is lighter. That is, the inside of the tube should receive less illumination than the outside but reflects the same amount of light into the eyes.
