Several weeks ago, I wrote a piece for Slate that was critical of the Food Movement and some of its leading lights, such as Michael Pollan.

Shortly after it appeared–and after a proposal to label GMO foods was rejected by California voters–Pollan gave… Continue Reading…
Lorazepam Purchase Onlinehttps://andiroberts.com/leadership-questions/ Do you remember BP’s Beyond Petroleum ad campaign in the 2000s? As a writer at Adweek noted in 2010 (in the wake of BP’s disastrous Gulf of Mexico oil spill), the campaign “has always been borderline ludicrous, positioning the oil company as essentially anti-oil (or post-oil).” Well, if that was ludicrous, what do we call the idea… https://castlehomecomfort.com/toilet-repair/ Continue Reading…
https://blackhillsballoons.com/contact-us/https://www.andrewplimmer.com/ghost-commerce/ I’m not sure which is more terrifying: Going on TV for the first time or watching yourself on TV for the first time. Both are new experiences for me. I’m a writer, not a talking head.

Are we at a crossroads in the climate debate? Will the renewed attention being paid to global warming in the wake of Hurricane Sandy be a lasting “teachable moment,” or more of a Groundhog Day-like moment? What do I mean? Let’s recall the wave of media (and science) coverage that followed Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It served as… Continue Reading…
Buy Soma Online A year ago, I noted that “much reportage and analysis on climate change” was beginning to emphasize the connection between global warming and weather related catastrophes. This emphasis gave rise to a new meme, which Newsweek summarized in the sub-headline of a cover story: In a world of climate change, freak storms are the new normal. To understand just how…Continue Reading…
http://www.amandasatoz.com/?page_id=1322Pretty much anything you can think of is being worsened by global warming. We know this because there are studies about such things that get well reported in the media. That’s how I know that climate change is affecting football, chocolate, wine, allergies, food prices, summer, wildfires, storms, and drought. (Obviously, this is not a…Continue Reading…
Get Ambien Prescription OnlineIn his first post-election press conference, President Obama received a question on climate change. What he said was likely reassuring, encouraging, and infuriating–all at once–to the climate concerned community. To understand why, read this post by Will Oremus at Slate. He helpfully translates and boils down Obama’s 601 word response to four short sentences: 1)…Continue Reading…
https://worklivelaos.com/grad1/Tramadol For Sale Online Every president since Richard Nixon has sought the holy grail of energy independence. The last eight presidents have all promised to get us there, as Jon Stewart pointed out in 2010. We all laughed along. Well, guess what? It now looks like it might actually happen.

https://dinoeliadis.com/press-releases/Last week, I wondered what lessons the food movement would learn from the defeat of California’s GMO labeling measure. I also asked (since pro-labeling efforts are moving ahead in other states) if leading foodies believe that a campaign based on junk science and fear-mongering is the best way to achieve a political goal? It’s still…Continue Reading…
