Don’t write to your MP. It seems to me they have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Educate yourself and find out what’s going on. Here is a list of the some of the videos, talks and books I’ve listened to and read:

• Jeremy Jackson, Ocean Apocalypse.
• Charles Clover – The End of the Line.
• Videos on the environmental impacts of salmon farming.
• Michael Pollen, Omnivore’s dilemma.
• Marian Nestle, Food corporations and related issues.
