We Must Change Our Lives

Of the ten calories of fossil fuels necessary to provide one calorie of food energy, about 40% is used for fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides, about 23% for processing and packaging and about 32% in home refrigeration/freezing and cooking. Pat Murphy

I completely agree!

I recently created a social networking site for people interested in organic food, and I would love for you to join (Its free, of course). I think you have quite a bit to contribute to our community. Some of our members have just recently started paying attention to where their food comes from, and I think its important to have people like you who can help answer their questions.

I hope you will consider it, and in the meantime I look forward to your next blog.
