"I love this book. Thomashow's writing is readable, and yet very engaging & thought-provoking. At this point in my life this is exactly what I need to be reading to help me think through campus sustainability and institutionalized change. I just finished the energy chapter and am pumped to head into chapter 2: FOOD!" Jun 27, 2015 02:41PM

Michael Pollan
“Another thing cooking is, or can be, is a way to honor the things we're eating, the animals and plants and fungi that have been sacrificed to gratify our needs and desires, as well as the places and the people that produced them. Cooks have their ways of saying grace too... Cooking something thoughtfully is a way to celebrate both that species and our relation to it.”
Michael Pollan, The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals

“you know what the best kind of organic certification would be? make an unannounced visit to a farm and take a good long look at the farmer's bookshelf. Because what you're feeding your emotions and thoughts is what this is really all about. the way I produce a chicken is an extension of my worldview. You can learn more about that by seeing what is sitting on my bookshelf than having me fill out a whole bunch of forms." Joel Salatin”

“The blessing of the omnivore is that he can eat a great many different things in nature. The curse of the omnivore is that when it comes to figuring out which of those things are safe to eat, he's pretty much on his own.”
