great article, read Food Myths for a class so am familiar with Leppe. Missing here is the effect of a banking system that creates currency as debt that must be paid back with "interest" to these privatized businesses regulated privately (Federal Reserve is the USA enabler) . This is a huge problem in the mindset and the ability to construct the means to supply the needs/wants for people who .understand the evolved vision. I appreciate Leppe bringing in depression as a cultural dis-ease opens the door to a real look at how we are taught to rationally accept a schizophrenic state as "reality." Once one gets eco-mind and starts seeing connections and patterns between disciplines, bio, abiotic systems, acts and reactions etc one feels the necessity to put it into real life practices. This is where the words leave the page and where I am most frustrated. This is why each one alone is not going to make a great difference until we all invite others to participate in the evolution as truly we need to free life itself from the blunders of bad science, zealots and stories that are no longer true (if ever) I try via arts projects in conversations, processes that need cooperation, collaboration for classes and shows. Please everyone reading this start something , a group or class or whatever to help move thinking beyond the nihilistic construct of the old skool.
