Anna Lappe's TEDx Manhattan Talk on Food Industry Marketing

A very passionate and inspiring short talk by Anna Lappe. Certainly only the tip of the iceberg. It has to be a part of an environmental and social education agenda.

About This Blog

Almost five years ago, I retired The Localizer Blog, your favorite far too acidic current events blog, due to the need to temporarily self-censor myself. Most of us do it for one reason or another from time to time. I wrote about it for my dissertation. Well, I missed the writing life, I always have some damn thing to say, and I missed my audience who contributed great comments. So I may start slow because of so much going on right now in my working life, but you can be assured that when it comes to sustainability, growth and development, planning, ecology, environmental issues generally, and the occasional sensitive political post, I will speak my mind. Thanks again for coming along for the ride!
