Michael Pollan spoke last month at the Georgia Organics Conference, and had a few choice words to say about the impact of industrial food production on climate change. As my garden grows bigger every week, I am constantly reminded of the miracle of photosynthesis to produce food energy, which Michael smartly points out. Watch the segment below, and check out the entire talk at Mother Nature Network
By removing ourselves from the industrial food system and eating locally as much as possible, we can reduce the stress placed upon the planet and our bodies. Learn more about climate friendly foods in the Act section below.
