January 2010

The Future of Food, a groundbreaking documentary released in 2004, distills the complex technology and key regulatory, legal, ethical, environmental and consumer issues surrounding the troubling changes happening in the food system today—genetically engineered foods, patenting, and the corporatization of food—into terms the average person can easily understand. It empowers consumers to understand the consequences of their food choices on our future.

In 2010 as we take note of where we stand and look toward the future, the issues raised in The Future of Food are more pressing than ever. The corporate control of agriculture and the seed supply is meeting more and more resistance from the sustainable food movement that has risen up around the world.  Food and agriculture have become central in discussions about climate change, sequestering carbon, health and the preservation of biological diversity.

We’ve re-designed our website to provide more up-to-date information and resources related to the issues addressed in The Future of Food. We hope The Future of Food and the resources provided here will continue to help propel us all into a healthier food future.
