RadioActive: The Vegetarian Myth

The-Vegetarian-Myth-Food-Justice-Sustainability

Last Friday, Flora welcomed writer, farmer and feminist Lierre Keith.  Her book The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice and Sustainability is generating excitement and controversy.  Keith spent 20 years as a vegan but now argues that big agriculture is threatening the health and viability of the planet.  A diet based on “more of the same” won’t help.  In a lively hour, Keith makes her case while Utah’s vegan community call-in to make theirs.  Listen to The Vegetarian Myth and decide for yourself.  For pro-vegan, pro-vegetarian perspectives, RadioActive has recently featured Steven Best and Peter Young as well as Tom Regan and Chris Foster.
