Buy Local

Posted by admin on April 20, 2009

Buy local food.
If possible, buy local & organic food.
Though some local food may be organic but just doesn’t have the required certification to be recognized as such, so check into that.

They say that some of our USA grown produce will travel 1500 miles to reach your area store!
Do the math: one gallon of gas creates 20 pounds of carbon dioxide.
So you can see how much damage can be done and that’s for US food, not even the imported produce!
