I’d like to introduce you to my friend and truly wonderful human being, Rob Greenfield.
.
If you’re looking for a source of positivity in these difficult times, please follow @robjgreenfield.
.
Rob is a voice of calm—and inspiration. He has dedicated his life not only to simple living but also to helping others, be it through raising awareness about food and other waste, donating 100% of his media income to grassroots nonprofits, teaching others in his local community how to grow their own food and much much more.
.
Rob is always working on something inspiring and he recently wrapped up an ambitious project. For a year, ending in November 2019, he bought no food. He grew and foraged 100% of what he ate, all while living in a city in his tiny house—and not on a sprawling farm. Half of his food came from his garden—he produced 100 different kinds of food over the year!—and half came from foraging.
.
Rob set out on this project not merely to sustain himself, but also to empower others to sustain themselves and build self-sufficiency and resilience. We can rely on ourselves—and our communities!—more and the industrialized food system less. That doesn't mean each of us must go all in and grow every morsel of food that we eat. But even thinking about growing a tomato plant can open up a whole new world and shift our mindset.
.
So, if you’re looking for a source of light in your Instagram feed, please follow @robjgreenfield. He will inspire, empower and uplift you.

Enjoy a good book while you hunker down.
.
I started Johnathan Safran Foer’s latest book, “We Are the Weather,” last week and highly recommend it. In it, Foer asks, if we really do acknowledge the fact that the planet is heating, why don’t we change our lifestyles?
.
One (of many) gems from the book: “When a radical change is needed, many argue that it is impossible for individual actions to incite it, so it’s futile for anyone to try. This is exactly the opposite of the truth: the impotence of individual action is a reason for everyone to try.”
.
Every individual action matters as COVID-19 is showing us in real time. We can all help flatten the curve and reduce the speed of the pandemic’s spread. So please stay safe, stay home and read some good books. I know this is a very difficult and stressful time but we’re all in this together.
