Every dollar we spend on food, clothes, health care, recreation, and building materials either supports pollution or clean water, farm worker poverty or economic health, nutrition or empty calories, and humane or cruel livestock conditions. Guests from across the country and around the world describe how we can work for a better, healthier culture, lifestyle, and planet. There is hope. Be the change.
