Yet, today in the United States, laws exist at all levels of government that actually make these problems worse. Baylen Linnekin argues that, too often, government rules handcuff America's most sustainable farmers, producers, sellers, and consumers, while rewarding those whose practices are anything but sustainable. Bitting the Hands that Feed Us introduces readers to the perverse consequences of many food rules. Some of these rules constrain the sale of 'ugly' fruits and vegetables, relegating bushels of tasty but misshapen carrots and strawberries to food waste. Other rules have threatened to treat manure--the lifeblood of organic fertilization--as a toxin. Still other rules prevent sharing food with the homeless and others in need. There are even rules that prohibit people from growing fruits and vegetables in their own yards. Linnekin also explores what makes for a good food law--often, he explains, these emphasize good outcomes rather than rigid processes. But he urges readers to be wary of efforts to regulate our way to a greener food system, calling instead for empowerment of those working to feed us (and themselves) sustainably"--Amazon.com. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Food supply|xGovernment policy|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009125367 650 0 Food supply|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050339|xEnvironmental aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005383|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Food supply|xLaw and legislation|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85050341|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Food industry and trade|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85050282|xGovernment policy|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh99005269|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Food industry and trade|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85050282|xEnvironmental aspects|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005383|zUnited States. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Food law and legislation|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008103971 650 0 Sustainable agriculture|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh87004216|xGovernment policy|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh99005269|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Livestock|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85077784|xMoral and ethical aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00006099|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Nutrition policy|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008108543 650 0 Food consumption|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008120927 650 7 Food supply|xGovernment policy.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/931206 650 7 Food supply|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/931202 650 7 Food supply.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/931196 650 7 Food supply|xLaw and legislation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/931213 650 7 Food industry and trade|xGovernment policy.|2fast|0https:/ /id.worldcat.org/fast/930886 650 7 Food industry and trade.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/930843 650 7 Food industry and trade|xEnvironmental aspects.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/930876 650 7 Food law and legislation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/930954 650 7 Sustainable agriculture|xGovernment policy.|2fast|0https:/ /id.worldcat.org/fast/1139716 650 7 Sustainable agriculture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1139712 650 7 Livestock.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1000722 650 7 Nutrition policy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1042296 650 7 Food consumption.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 930721 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aLinnekin, Baylen.|tBiting the hands that feed us.|dWashington D.C. : Island Press, [2016] |z9781610916752|w(DLC) 2016938036|w(OCoLC)946462791 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1619679|zOnline eBook.
