ll creatures are defined ecologically by how they fit into a food chain. In the case of humans, the industrialization of food has obscured this once-plain fact, to the point where most Americans are only dimly aware that their food represents their most profound engagement with the natural world. Over the past few years, Michael Pollan has conducted a series of personal explorations of our food chain, growing a genetically modified potato, tracing an organic TV dinner from grocery freezer to farm, buying and following a steer from insemination to steak. In this talk, Pollan will use these stories to tease out conclusions about what’s gone wrong with the industrial food system and its implication for our health. He’ll also explore some of the healthier alternatives to industrial food.
