From Barbra Kingsolver

From:
Animal, vegetable Mineral

"If every US citizen ate just one meal a week, any meal, composed of locally and organically grown meats and produce, we would reduce our country's oil consumption by over 1.1 million barrels of oil every week. That's not gallons, but barrels."

Great quote. My favorite Kingslover quote is:

“Eaters must understand, how we eat determines how the world is used.” – Barbara Kingslover in Animal, Vegetable, Miracle

That book is definitely one of the "must reads."
