The Meatrix


I hope that many of you are opposed to factory farms.  The substandard treatment given animals today to put meat and dairy on the table is inexcusable.  To stimulate class discussion there is an animated series called the Meatrix that speaks to factory farms and an accurate depiction of far too many producers in the United States today, such as those depicted in Fast Food Nation.  So for an entertaining and thought provoking resource check out: http://www.themeatrix.com/

Better still, when each animated segment is completed there is information from http://www.sustainabletable.org/ on what to do to celebrate local sustainable food and educate consumers on food-related issues.
