Watch Your (Fo)odometer! (The Nation, YouTube)

Interested in eating less oil? In this VideoNation/Hidden Driver report, animator Molly Schwartz keeps track of how many miles your food travels from field to fork.

An Aside:
We went to the delightful wedding of Benny and Grey Lee’s brother yesterday at Land’s Sake, a local organic farm. Some of the food we ate at the reception was grown in the nearby field. Food miles: 100-200 ft.

Sooooo cool! I just had to share that.
