Today I spent on the couch, when I wasn’t getting sick. We really take our food sources for granted – who knows how far the ingredients traveled?

The author uses a boating term at the end of the book: ‘Watch your wake’, talking about the rippling effect of our consuming habits and the need to tread lightly (minimal wake) with our lifestyle.
