My Essay Topic: How does living in San Diego limit or expand our food options?
Possible ways to branch out - Local vs non-local, shipping costs and the like, resources in the area/state, etc

Reducing the Threat of Climate Change in the U.S.: A Survey of Activities, (no author listed), http://www.worldwatch.org/node/3947, accessed 2.23.2011

This article gives information about reducing the threat of climate change - climate change, in part, is caused by commuting on the roads/in the air, and from the slaughter of animals. It speaks about laws mandated to reduce climate change and what areas are taking on new restrictions, what places are trying to get a change in the way climate change is challenged, and how people are trying to stop it. It also details what certain states are doing - "California adopted legislation in 2002 that requires the California Air Resources Board to adopt emissions standards for cars and light-trucks/SUVs in California. Application of standards is to begin in 2009."
The article will help with my research because it helps give some insight onto what sorts of things that people have to go through to get food to different places. Trucks traveling across the country just to deliver blueberries to San Diego, say, pose a serious threat to the climate - so this will help give me some ground to stand on when it comes to pointing out unnecessary food mileage just to get something sweet to our city.
