AMY GOODMAN,
of DEMOCRACY NOW
does a great interview here
with MICHAEL POLLAN.

This talk was done February 8, 2010.

http://www.democracynow.org/2010/2/8/michael_pollan_on_food_rules_an


He has a new book out now
called FOOD RULES.

The CODEX ALIMENTARIUS COMMISSION,
the international body that makes
many of the FOOD RULES that dicate
how we eat today.

I find it interesting that Pollan uses
the same words, FOOD RULES
for the title of his new book
that sets the record straight.

Lots of great truths in this down to earth
interview.

The interview touches on a lot of basic truths.

"We once had 40% of the country involved in
producing our food."

It is now 1% involved in producing our food,
thanks to fossil fuels.

He mentions the laws on the books
that can arrest you if you immune a food
and hurt its trade. Interesting discussion
about this.

The relationship between
Global Warming and meat eating.

Push Back from the industry
against Michael Pollan.
A couple of his talks on college campuses
have been cancelled.

Discusses what happened at San Luis Obispo
when university supporter protested his speaking.

Ag Schools control diversity of talks.
8000 people came out to hear him at Madison.
Discusses the protest....

Creating New Markets for Farmers....
is part of his work....
won some of them over....

Discusses EARL BUTTS....
influence...it was a great opportunity.
Talk at Madison...

Mentions FOOD INC.
He has it has frightened the industry.

Mentions BILL MARLER, an attorney
I have been watching. Marler supports
Food Safety Laws. Pollan discusses
receiving Marler support for one of his talks.

GREAT INTRO TO CODEX ALIMENTARIUS COMMISSION
and their FOOD RULES.

I may want to write something about the influence
of Codex Alimentarius on the way we eat today.
