- Michelle Lopez-Dohrn speaks about creating a food co-op to help promote progressive change in food, community, economy, environment and as a model for human cooperation.
What is a Co-op?
"A co-operative is an autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly-owned and democratically-controlled enterprise."
TEDx
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
Some of the Co-Ops that I have visited seemed to cater to more affluent, better-educated, people concerned about their health, organic only, to sum it up people who shop also at Whole Food or as some like to call it Whole paycheck. I find that the prices end up being high and out of reach of lower-income people. I would like to see more focus on families living day to day and maybe on food stamps. Having organic, untested on animals, no gluten, grown from special seeds etc... is a luxury that is typically for the affluent grown-up hippie generation.
Beautiful.
good talk

So she eats chicken?! I thought she cared about animals, people's health and the environment......
Some people that care eat chicken. Some of those people are very effective also.

not all meat is incompatible with health and the environment.
@@whcoopsupporter3280 if they really cared about animals they wouldn’t be eating them.
