Goodall, named a Messenger of Peace by the U.N. for her work with children around the world in her program "Roots and Shoots," discusses her early work with chimpanzees, how these animals now face extinction, factory farmed animals, GMO'd foods vs organic, agribusiness vs. traditional ways of farming, the Slow Foods movement, buying food locally at Farmers' Markets, eating in season, evolution vs. creationism, war vs. peace, environmental degradation vs. living in harmony with nature.

Fantastic! Thank you, Lapis!

Chimps may be even smarter than we thought. There is evidence that their grunts are a rudimentary form of "speech" which can be understood by other chimps.
