I apologize for the lack of posts lately - I have been busy! This came across my desk and is very much worth passing along. This is an article written by Francis Moore Lappe, who wrote "Diet For A Small Planet". I learned about her by reading her foreword in Masanobu Fukuoka's book "The One Straw Revolution".
The third largest city in Brazil has literally ended hunger for all its citizens, and the school lunches are loaded with wonderfully fresh local produce - if they can do it, we can do it! http://www.yesmagazine.org/issues/food-for-everyone/the-city-that-ended-hunger
“I knew we had so much hunger in the world. But what is so upsetting, what I didn’t know when I started this, is it’s so easy. It’s so easy to end it.”
Adriana Aranha, former manager in the city agency.
