Let's Create a Plant-Based Food System...Learn How!
New Course Offering From the Vegan Studies Initiative
|
|
|
In partnership with Arihanta Institute's Vegan Studies Initiative, we would like to share their upcoming course, Feeding the World: Toward a Plant-Based Food System. The global food system is a paradox: it is at once incredibly productive and terribly destructive. Perhaps nowhere is this paradox more evident than in animal agriculture, which feeds billions of people but causes widespread environmental, public health, and ethical problems.
?
asks what the food system would look like without large-scale animal agriculture and what the benefits and challenges would be to feeding the global population on a plant-based diet. It will introduce students to the concept of food systems and food system analysis, delve into the impacts of animal agriculture, and sketch out the possibilities for building a plant-based food system.?
? If we can't visualize a vegan future, then how will we create it?? ?
Dr. Jan Dutkiewicz is Assistant Professor in the School of Social Science and Cultural Studies at the Pratt Institute and a Contributing Writer at Vox. He has written about the politics of food for The New Republic, The Guardian, The Washington Post, WIRED and The Wall Street Journal. ?
This course starts October 7, 2024. Vegan Studies Initiative course fees have been reduced to just $25 for four weeks of expert instruction and in depth information in video and text format. We highly recommend these classes! ?

It¡¯s too bad that Indochine closed but I have eaten there and I thought it was pretty mediocre. What really disappoints me is the loss of the Herbivore restaurants, Source, Baia, Gracias Madre and There are probably a couple of more. Thank god for Wildseed, Next Level Burgers, and the new Saluhall, in the bottom of Ikea. There are 5 places there and they all have a lot of vegan food. Don¡¯t forget places like Picante in Berkeley and Cybelle¡¯s in the inner sunset, both of which have extensive vegan menus.
We need to support the places we have so we don¡¯t lose any more.
I¡¯ve been vegan for 37 years.

Re: Wildlife Services has outstayed its welcome
???? Somebody back in the day thought it would be a good idea to have the State regulate and manage agriculture and wildlife. Now, decades later, we're once again dealing with the unintended consequences of misguided government intervention. Both Wildlife Services and the Department of Agriculture should be abolished. If government has any legitimate role, it is to protect life, liberty, and justly acquired property. When it tries to stick its hands in everything, waste, fraud, abuse, and unintended negative consequences are the norm.

Exploring how our food system impacts wildlife, communities and the environment.
Issue 39 | September 2024
|
|
|
In Northern California, just a few counties away from where I live, biologists recently released beavers into the wild for the first time in nearly 75 years. These critters are critically important as nature¡¯s engineers. Beavers transform ecosystems, building wetlands that provide wildfire breaks and rich natural habitat for countless other species, while also improving water quality. Yet , a unit of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is killing them by the tens of thousands.
?
A 2022 study about called beaver restoration ¡°a cost-effective means¡± of repairing wetlands that provide homes for nearly three-quarters of wild animals in the United States. While scientists are calling for habitat restoration, Wildlife Services kills wildlife on our dime, largely on behalf of meat producers.
?
You see, Northern California is well known for its outdoor spaces, public lands, and natural beauty. But it¡¯s also known for its agriculture. And it¡¯s not just grapes and apples grown here. It¡¯s beef, chicken, and eggs, too.
?
On this beautiful landscape, factory farms and industrial agricultural sheds are an eyesore and local pollutant. In the grocery store, producers market their wares as locally grown meat and dairy. As a result of their presence, these hills blessed with coastal fog and ancient redwoods are besieged by powerful ag lobbies that contract with the Wildlife Services program to kill the coyotes, mountain lions, bears, foxes, birds, and other native wildlife who they perceive as a threat to livestock production.
?
In 2023 the program killed across the country, including 305 gray wolves, 68,562 coyotes, 430 black bears, 235 mountain lions, 469 bobcats, 2,122 red and gray foxes, 5,054 black-tailed prairie dogs, and hundreds of owls, otters and osprey, along with tens of thousands of other birds and wildlife. It also killed 24,603 native beavers.
?
When I testified against Wildlife Services programs at a local board of supervisors meeting, the ag lobby derided us. Even with sound logic, evidenced-based science, and the rights of communities to native wildlife, they dismissed the value of bears and coyotes and lions, relying on fear-mongering mythologies of carnivores as villains that prey on children at bus stops.
?
But the reality is that agricultural destruction of ecosystems, predator-prey balance, and watershed pollution is the real threat, not scary stories about the big bad wolf.
?
Many food producers, including some meat producers, delight in the wildlife they share the land with. And they¡¯re as outraged as we are about Wildlife Services. That¡¯s why counties neighboring mine have . It can be done.
?
It¡¯s well past time for the rest of the country to walk away from Wildlife Services too. The agency in charge of agriculture should not also oversee wildlife management. It¡¯s a conflict of interest, at least until we shift our framework of how to build policies that support a just, sustainable food system. Instead, policies encourage overproduction at the expense of people and wildlife, and the average American eats three times as much meat and dairy and four times as much beef as the rest of the world. That¡¯s not sustainable, and neither is the wildlife killing on behalf of those industries.
?
Given the wildlife and habitat destruction inherent to current meat production practices, the USDA should be working on a just transition away from meat and dairy overproduction.
?
Healthy wild ecosystems will never require the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of native wild animals, but they do require changes in western ranching and a reimagining of the American diet. ?
?
How You Can Help
- Ask your county supervisors to end contracts with or agree not to contract with the Wildlife Services killing program in your area.
- Build support for nonlethal wildlife coexistence in your area through gardening groups, at farmer¡¯s markets and city and county policy meetings, and among farming communities.
For the wild,
