The Issue

The Eat Well Guide is a fabulous website that helps you find fresh, organic, sustainable food in your area. Natasha mentioned this site in her blog recently ("Pre-Inaugural Feasting"), with good reason. They locate sustainable restaurants, farmers, farmers' markets, CSA's, stores, non-profit organizations, and bakers who are invested in providing delicious, sustainable food to their communities. The Eat Well Guide also has a great blog and links on how you can get involved in the "slow food" movement.

D WPetition StarterThere is still very limited awareness of the nature of the threat. This is an era of specialists, each of whom sees his own problem and is unaware of or intolerant of the larger frame into which it fits. It is also an era dominated by industry, in which the right to make a dollar at whatever cost is seldom challenged. When the public protests, confused with some obvious evidence...it is fed little tranquilizing pills of half-truths. We urgently need an end to these false assurances, to the sugar coating of unpalatable facts. It is the public that is being asked to assume the risks...The public must decide whether it wishes to continue on the present road, and it can do so only when in full possession of the facts. In the words of Jean Rostand, "The obligation to endure gives us the right to know." - Rachel Carson
