Noticed how this week’s Green weekender includes 3 big eco-foodie events? Sustainable food’s becoming a huge issue everywhere:

>> Slow Food USA’s Time for Lunch: National Day of Action wants you to join an eat-in near you on Sept. 7. The point: To get the federal government to change school food programs and start serving healthy, sustainable food. A few of the 273 (and counting!) eat-ins planned are in L.A. — so join the potluck, sign the petition, and read an article about Time for Lunch in the L.A. Times.

>> Time’s cover story’s “Getting Real About the High Price of Cheap Food” — the health, environmental, and social prices. The article’s sort of like Food, Inc. condensed into a magazine feature format that provides a broad overview of the problems and solutions. out there.
