For over a Quarter of a Century, World Food Day (October 16th) has provided a forum on television, for in-depth analysis of the crisis of extreme poverty and hunger throughout the world, even in the US. This particular panel, has representatives from the Agency for International Development's Food For Peace program, the main vehicle the United States uses to distribute food to needy countries. Also represented, is a member of The World Food Council, which has existed for many decades , and has hands-on-the-ground experience in food insecure countries.

World Food Day presents a 9 part discussion of the danger of Climate Change to our food security, World-Wide. Ray Suarez of PBS, hosts this discussion with many key people that are familiar with the science of climate change, and it's impact on food production.

The US Dept. of Agriculture, in partnership with the FAO (the United Nations Food & and Agriculture Organization), accomplish many programs that enable sustainable agriculture, both here and in other countries. In spite of criticism of USDA as a racist outfit, it still manages somehow, to render much needed credit, even to minorities( although it usually takes a lawsuit!!)

A Visit with Tim

Intelligent and engaging, the documentary 'Tricky Bidness' looks at marijuana from the the point of view of people who have lived with it in their community for over 40 years.

The film tells the story of how the progressive City of Arcata, California has tried to balance the rights and needs of medical marijuana patients with the preservation of neighborhoods and community.

As marijuana moves towards the mainstream after 75 years of federal prohibition... the question becomes not if it will be legalized, but how to legalize it.
