Meatonomics – David Robinson Simon Forget ‘you are what you eat,’ these three writers explain how in today’s world it should be ‘you are what you buy’. Executive Director of the Good Food Institute, Bruce Friedrich, discusses David Robinson Simon’s practical and political solutions to confronting sustainable consumption, he writes: “Simon’s solution comes in three parts: An excise tax on all products that contain animal ingredients, a tax credit for every American (basically giving back most of the tax revenues), and a reformulation of the USDA’s mission away from promoting the consumption of animal products to instead promote the public health. […] Though enacting Simon’s proposals will require a steep climb, Simon makes his case persuasively: The meat industry is harming our health, destroying our environment, and abusing billions of animals annually. As he notes in discussing prospects for his plans: ‘Change does happen, often in swift and surprising ways.’ Meatonomics deserves a prime spot in the library of everyone who cares about the politics of food.” Read the full review on the Huffington Post website: http://huff.to/1NMSe1K
