This scares me! I have spent my life saying only a fraction of what I think and now I will be putting these thoughts out there for the world to see. While I am sure 99.99999999% of the world is not interested the few who are make me squirm.
Emma (my wife) thought this blog was a good idea. It will be about my family and our attempt to live a minimalist life eating and consuming for the sake of health, happiness, and the improvement of our world and society for our children's futures. Sounds pretty easy right? We shall see....
This all started with an NPR interview with France Moore Lappe. She threw out some amazing stats about the worlds food production and some misconceptions most of have about why people are starving in the world. I ran by the library the next day to check out "Diet for a Small Planet". My wife and I became consumed with the idea of "voting with our dollar" and decided that January 1, 2010 we would try to change the way we consume for many different reasons.
Here we go.
