Get involved against ACTA
If you don’t know what ACTA is, check the banner at the top of my blog and then use google for a fuller story. Incase you’re a moron, hint: this is extremely important.
Sign the White House petition against ACTA!
Please reblog this, spread the word, tweet, facebook, word of mouth. This is worse than SOPA and PIPA and receiving FAR less attention. You can help!

These images are from the book ‘Hungry Planet: What the World Eats’ by Peter Menzel and Faith D’Aluision. It’s an inspired idea, to better understand the human diet, explore what culturally diverse families eat for a week. Their portraits feature pictures of each family with a week’s worth of food purchases. We soon learn that diet is determined by largely uncontrollable forces like poverty, conflict and globalization, which can bring change with startling speed. Thus cultures can move, sometimes in a single jump, from traditional diets to the vexed plenty of global-food production. People have more to eat and, too often, eat more of nutritionally questionable food. And their health suffers.
Saw this photo essay in my Anthropology class. Extremely eye-opening.
