I saw Vanada Shiva speak at OCAD on March 18, 2010 in Toronto. The auditorium was packed to the rafters, I luckily got spots for my friend and me, just on time.
Dr Shiva was brilliant- charming, funny, factual and passionate. She has a number of projects and is an activist on many behalfs - the seed project she is behind are foresightful and will ensure that people will be able to eat in the future, despite the commodification of food for profit by large scale corporations.
She helped me re-establish a commitment to thinking about the food I eat, and to try to influence my family's process of buying and consuming. The return to vegetarianism!
I laud her amazing energy and will continue to support her efforts.
