Beyond the Bar Code: The Local Food Revolution
 
Because industrial agriculture is the single most destructive human activity against the environment, what we put on our collective plate and how we grow our food are going to be amount the most decisive factors impacting the fate of the Earth and public health. Few journalists have done more than Michael Pollan to serve up food for thought about our diet and food systems. He reports on the burgeoning worldwide growth of local food economies and a true Green Revolution.



Green-Collar Jobs: Laboring into the Next Economy
 
Labor leader Cesar Chavez helped ban DDT. Truckers are helping address appalling asthma rates at the filthy port of Los Angeles. And inner-city clergy, not suburbanites, led the latest victory against the big-box Wal-Mart stores sprawling over community open space. Unlikely allies? Environmental justice and labor leaders Manuel Pastor, Maria Elena Durazo and Rev. Alexia Salvatierra show us that in a truly sustainable economy, everybody is an environmentalist - and a healthy environment depends on economic justice.
