The fascinating presentation and discussion by John Mackey (CEO of Whole Foods) and Michael Pollan (writer of The Omnivore’s Dilemma) from a couple weeks back is now available on webcast at webcast.berkeley.edu.
If you’re at all interested in where your food comes from and the quality and history of what you eat — this is an amazing presentation and discussion. The presentation part is by John Mackey, laying out his vision of the state of food as a complement to the vision Pollan laid out in The Omnivore’s Dilemma. It’s followed by a discussion between the two of them.
The event was held on campus at Cal, and sold out faster than a Phish reunion concert at halftime of Big Game. It’s a really compelling and invigorating exchange of ideas and addresses a lot of what we’re attempting to accomplish here.
Very interesting viewing – thanks for posting the links Jay.
I wonder when color TV will catch on up there in Berkeley?
