Glad you liked the video. It certainly made an impact on me and the way I see the world. I shall also be finding ways of changing and reducing consumption - but it's hard with kids about to enter teenagehood.

I think the video should be compulsory viewing for everyone. May be Russ can put it somewhere more prominent...?

Another thing that really changed my outlook on life was the book 'Not on the label' by Felicity Lawrence. (think those are the right details). She talks at length about the use of migrant workers, food miles, transport insanity in terms of getting food to the stores, the use of disgusting ingredients - all to produce horrendous, apparently cheap, convenience food that the masses just lap up. Once you have seen the world for what it is, it is very difficult to 'unsee' it again. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> It is very depressing to think what our kids are growing up in.

Best
