not sure at all that i'm reading this right (fuck, its friday evening i'm a bit pissed and about to meet billy....not to mention the fact that the english is rather bad in the article) but doesn't that figure of 57% simply relate to the energy a 'typical family' uses, not total energy usage? and as the energy a family uses is nowt compared to what is used by industry as a whole (the study only seems to take account of energy directly related to food), then its a bit misleading to say shopping locally (to put it very crudely) is the way forward.

changing industrial energy use is the key. the article seems (to a psihed person) to be saying that only 16% of energy usage is involved in food producton totally, so 60% of that can be reduced, but it would make little difference overall.

which probably doesnt make sense at all....should have waited till i was straighter.......BILLY!
