The Silicon Valley Reads Programs sponsored by the Santa Clara County Library, Santa Clara County Office of Education, and the San Jose Public Library Foundation have chosen Michael Pollan's book "In Defense of Food" as their highlighted book for 2010.
His motto, "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants."
His book is mostly educating people about eating whole instead of processed food, but his motto does fall into the green category. It always takes more energy, land, and water units to raise meat than it does to raise plants.
