2015-12-15 18:00 - 18:30 | Farmers Market Maui, 3636 Lower Honoapiilani Rd, Lahaina, HI, 96761, United States
So many people today lack both the nutritional and practical knowledge of how to adopt a highprotein, highfiber vegan diet, rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Yet most people today lack a highprotein, highfiber diet rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, vegan or not. The health benefits of such a diet are no longer contested. Some of our staff have extensive athletic backgrounds and have naturally evolved to a vegan
diet for its superior nutritional benefits. Like most of us, they can not commit to a time consuming and tedious effort in the search for superior nutrition. Come see how quick and easy it is to adopt a diet that includes plenty of nuts, seeds and raw
vegetables and how to create a variety of delicious foods with only a few minutes of effort. The ½ hour presentation will include a brief overview of the nutritional benefits of readily
available and inexpensive foods, and a demo where we will create wholesome, nutritious and delicious food with a strict minimum of effort, followed by a short Q&A session.

“From the right to know and the duty to inquire flows the obligation to act.” -Dr. Sandra Steingraber
Hawaii is at a crossroads. On the one hand, we are global leaders in the areas of sustainable agriculture, sustainable finance, and clean energy. On the other hand, we have the world's most endangered species, we import 85% of our food, and we pay the highest energy prices in the US, most of which is powered by fossil fuel.
To move the conversation on sustainable solutions forward, Hawai‘i Center for Food Safety, Sierra Club, Sustainable Coastlines, Hawai‘i Alliance for Progressive Action, Hawai‘i SEED, Hawai‘i People’s Fund, Honua Consulting, KUPU Hawai‘i, Kanu Hawaii and North Shore O.H.A.N.A. are proud to host acclaimed ecologist and author Dr. Sandra Steingraber for a public lecture and book signing in Honolulu on Wednesday, December 16, 2015.
Heralded as “the new Rachel Carson,” Dr. Steingraber has been a tireless champion for public health, authoring acclaimed books like Raising Elijiah and Living Downstream, and leading a successful campaign to ban fracking in New York state. Dr. Steingraber weaves precise science, the public world of policy and the intimacy of everyday life to illustrate that change is possible in an age of environmental crisis.
The FREE program will begin at 6:30 PM with book signing to follow. Come early to purchase her book and get a prime seat. Free parking in lot on a first come first serve basis. We hope to see you there. #protectourkeiki #pesticidesinparadise
