The Local Food Revolution by Michael Brownlee

Michael Brownlee, cofounder of the nonprofit Local Food Shift Group, issues a clarion call and manifesto for a revolutionary movement to localize the global food supply and lays out a practical guide for those who hope to navigate the challenging process of shaping the local or regional food system. Demonstrating that humanity faces a near-term and prolonged global food crisis, he provides a roadmap for embarking on the process of righting the profoundly unsustainable and already-failing global industrialized food system. Brownlee charts the process by which localization of the global food supply unfolds in communities, regions, and foodsheds and suggests pathways forward that otherwise may remain invisible and unexplored. The book also considers some of the moral, economic, and social dilemmas and thresholds that might come to the fore as the local food shift develops.
Brownlee, Michael: - Michael Brownlee has been working at the front lines of the local food movement for more than a decade, supporting individuals and groups in building regional food systems. He is the author of The Local Food Revolution. A Colorado native, Michael lives in Boulder with his partner, where they operate Local Food Catalysts LLC, an online publishing and events company supporting emerging leaders in the unfolding local food revolution.
