  Tom and Ken both make good points. If the worst case scenarios a lot of scientists predict are true, any cost is by defintion worth it, since life as we know it may not be possible othwerise. Partially because of the financial situation, the world is undergoing a small revolution ( http://changethis.com/58.02.SmallRevolution ), and slowing climate change is one of the accidental benefits of this. But if the situation is as dire as it seems, we need to make intentional changes as well.

  Small farms are a refreshing example of "the power of small," which is another way of saying "the small revolution." I live in Brooklyn, and I've vaguely heard about upstate farms I could be ordering from directly, but I've never followed up on it. Instead, I've been relying on the convenience of Fresh Direct. This entry has inspired me to start looking into small farms around here again. That's a lot more fresh, and a lot more direct!
