"The planet is under pressure and our choices have never been more important. The Food Revolution Summit is an informative and empowering platform which highlights ways to set a new pattern for the future of the planet."
- Paul McCartney

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM AUTHOR JOHN ROBBINS:

Dear Friend,

If you have arrived at this page, it's likely that you love food. You know the value of health. And you know there is a connection between your food, your health, and the health of our world!

I want to invite you to participate in what I believe to be the most important event I can offer you in the future of our food. It's called the 2013 Food Revolution Summit.

Perhaps you're aware that we're entering a food crisis unless something is done. And done NOW. Never before have the stakes - and the risks - been so high.

I will be personally interviewing 24 of the top food experts and activists on the planet for a week long 'virtual summit' (April 27-May 5).

These 24 visionaries have inspired hundreds of millions of people. These 24 leaders have changed the way we think about food. I have selected these 24 people both for the substance of their message, and for their skill in sharing it.

How does it work?

You'll have direct access to 3 highly focused half-hour interviews - personally conducted by me - every day for a week. You can listen via phone (conference call), or over the internet.

What if you miss an interview? No problem. There are recordings, transcripts, and many other resources that will be available as part of an optional upgrade package.

Never before has such a potent group of visionary leaders come together for a global summit on food.
And never before has it been this easy to access so much cutting edge, up-to-date information on this crucial topic!
