The Carbon Footprint of Food – Monday December 2nd:
Are you wondering how your food choices add up in your personal footprint? We will look at the greenhouse gas emissions produced by growing, rearing, farming, processing, transporting, storing, cooking and disposing of the food we eat. Leave the session feeling very full of tasty ways to make a difference! Co-sponsored by Local 20/20 Climate Action and Jefferson County Public Health, this is not a lecture series, but a book club & discussion format. Each session includes information to get the conversation started, followed by group discussions that include what locals think and what locals plan to do. For further information email Laura Tucker or call 360-379-4491.
Time: 6:00 – 7:30 p.m. Location: Finnriver Farm and Cidery; 124 Center Road, Chimacum.
