So, I just saw a fellow blogger's post and was reminded of home.
Home, for me, is Vermont. Vermonters were green before it was "cool". Many of us are super-duper eco/enviro/earth-friendly, regarding EVERYTHING we do.
We don't just buy organic, we bike to our local farmer's market, buy organic products from local farmers, refusing any plastic packaging, and we then feed that organic food's refuse to our pigs, which are grass fed, loved while they are alive, slaughtered humanely, and then packaged in freakin' recycled paper to put in our freezer.
You do get the point that we're very earth-conscious now, right?
So, naturally, when I saw this infographic from ecomom's blog, I just had to share it! You can see it in a bigger size here, or just click on the image.
As a side note, if you're interested in learning more about genetically modified or genetically engineered food, I would HIGHLY suggest watching "The Future of Food", which was recently removed from YouTube due to a copyright claim, unfortunately.
Actually, I would highly suggest watching it even if you weren't interested, as it's still a very captivating film...
What do you think? Do you think this infographic will influence your next trip to the grocery store?
And, are you looking through your pantry now, like I did, after reading it (hah)?
we saw the future of food on netflix though i dont know if it is still available there. They also have a bunch of other documentaries about food, and agriculture.
ReplyDeleteThey are always available through Netflix (documentaries)! Its like visiting a RedBox, only with far more selections, especially re: documentaries (which are, by far, my current favorite movie genre, unless of course, its in 3D!).
DeleteTwo of my other faves include "Fast Food Nation" and "Supersize Me". Two very powerful films.
Have you seen "FLOW- For the Love Of Water" ? Another good one...really makes you rethink the whole "bottled water" marketing concept...
