Let's get the Coop to post food miles.

Many are now making the point that just eating organic isn't enough: so what if that mango was grown organically when it took many tons of CO2 to get it here? We should be able to know where our food came from and how long it took to get here. I'm betting many members of this group are also members of the Coop - what a great place to start! Let's start with an email campaign, then perhaps attend their next board meeting if we don't get results. Here's how to contact them: http://www.boisecoop.com/contactus.asp
