Go on a low-carbon diet...

Care about the environment? Then buy less fruits that travelled thousands of kilometres to get to your table! Think about the truck exhaust when you buy pineapples and bananas and macadamia nuts and coffee and the list goes on and on. Obviously just stopping won't happen, but just consider reducing. Locally-produced food and drink means less travel and less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

So sayeth

David Suzuki

I know that leapfish won't like this idea, but they suggest locally produced wines as one way to alter consumption...

No -- just realistic. Humans are corrosive. Globalization is a human endevour, therefore, it too has to be corrosive to some extent.

Humans happen to be corrosive. Humans don't have to be. Nor does globalization, we've just been conditioned to believe it so.
