If you take nothing away from this article other than the link to Earth Beat, an outstanding resource from Radio Netherlands, we've done our job.
But don't head off there quite yet.
We just wanted to bring to your attention the project started by 10-year-old Daniel Cashdan, of Oak Park, California, USA, in which he decided to try to - in effect - grow his own peanut-butter and jelly sandwich.
It is a bit about understanding how food is sourced and grown, how food is so convenient but really takes a lot of energy and effort.
Here's a link to the specific radio segment on Daniel Cashdan:
CLICK HERE TO PLAY RADIO NETHERLANDS SEGMENT
Now, zoom out a little. Earth Beat is a program on Radio Netherlands, in English, which covers all sorts of interesting stories on all things sustainable. Many are about projects, and projects not as limited in scope as growing your own PBJ sandwich.
This week's particular program, Food, Glorious Food, was about food in general. But Earth Beat's host, Marnie Chesterton, can always be counted on to inform, entertain, intrigue, and while doing so, tickle your funnybone.
So we suggest that you sit yourself down to a home-made (and perhaps home-grown?) peanut-butter and jelly sandwich, and listen to a few episodes of Earth Beat.
You can thank us later. Seriously. Please thank us. We'll know you're listening.
