DID YOU KNOW!?

I just finished watching the DVD No Impact Man. You should run to your local library and check it out!

DID YOU KNOW: the average piece of food travels 1500 miles from farm to plate
DID YOU KNOW: meat eating is responsible for more greenhouse gases than anything else including tranportation

These are good reasons to support your local farmers and farmer's markets. Eating locally and in season is sensible and responsible. If you are concerned about the environment, this is one way YOU can have an impact.

Don't even get me started on the damage PLASTICS has on the environment. That's for another time. I hope today you will think of ways that your food consumption can impact the environment and the world and people around you in a positive way!
