Power of the Pen
The pen (or computer keyboard!) can create positive change. Ideas on what you can write about include:
- Write an editorial about factory farming or sustainable food and submit to your local paper.
- Like our feature articles on Sustainable Table? Try to get your favorite online and/or print magazine or site to reprint them.
- Submit your own article to magazines, newspapers and online publications - Most local papers look for interesting articles. Find out how industrial farming or sustainable food ties into your community and write about it. Even if you don't have a factory farm nearby, you could write about how consumers are impacted by industrial food production. Or write about your local farmers market. Put links to our sites in your piece. If you get an article printed, please send us a copy! Go to the Issues section for information and ideas.
- Think we should be mentioned in a magazine you read? Write the publication and let them know! Same goes for web sites and other outlets - send them our url and why you think we should be mentioned in their publication.
- If you see an article in a paper or magazine that upsets or moves you, write a letter to the editor.
- What have you done to change your buying and eating habits to be more sustainable? What has happened since you've gone sustainable? Email Sustainable Table at info@sustainabletable.org and we'll publish your comments in our "Stories" section.
