They are four of the record numbers who organized grassroots campaigns, rejected corporate PAC money and challenged the notion that everyday people can run successful campaigns against sitting incumbents. Collectively these candidates herald a cultural and political shift to transform the process of running and electing our representatives. Such changes do not occur in a vacuum, nor are they about a singular issue. Rather they about changing the attitudes, behaviors, terms, and outcomes of existing and entrenched norms and building towards a more inclusive and representative government. 4 LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR, RACHEL LEARS I’ve been making films about politics since the days of Occupy Wall Street.

  • Summary of the Application: DRIED COFFEE CHERRY of Coffea Sp
    Summary of the application: DRIED COFFEE CHERRY of Coffea sp. (Cascara) Applicant: LUIGI LAVAZZA SpA, Via Bologna,32, 10152 Torino, ITALY This is an application for notification to place DRIED COFFEE CHERRY (commonly referred to as Cascara), from Coffea sp., on the market in the European Union (EU) for use as an ingredient in a herbal tea/infusion referred to as “Coffee cherry tea”, which is prepared by brewing the DRIED COFFEE CHERRY. This application is submitted pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on novel foods, and specifically corresponds to the category covered in Article 2 (iv) “food consisting of, isolated from or produced from plants or their parts, except when the food has a history of safe food use within the Union and is consisting of, isolated from or produced from a plant or a variety of the same species obtained by traditional propagating practices which have been used for food production within the Union before 15 May 1997.” The application was prepared according to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) guidance on the preparation and presentation of an application for notification of a Traditional Food in the context of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. Evidence of the consumption of “Coffee cherry tea” in Ethiopia dates back to before the 9th century; “Coffee cherry tea” is indeed commonly used as substitute for coffee in Ethiopia and Yemen. In the scientific literature and in this notification, the term DRIED COFFEE CHERRY refers to the outer part of coffee fruit, the husk and pulp, and accounts for almost 45% of the fresh berry.

But how do nations and citizens resolve tensions between ecological stewardship and meat consumption? What is implied in eating meat and raising livestock in a country where the historical imaginary yokes national values to the pig-producing countryside? To answer these questions, this dissertation examines how climate change is affecting meat consumption and production logics in Denmark. Though the country has a reputation for progressive environmental policy, its formerly large agricultural sector continues to exert disproportionate political influence, and many citizens consider pork its most "traditional" food. In 2016, a publicly-funded advisory council issued a report suggesting that parliament pass a beef tax to reduce consumption and reflect its environmental impact. The report was the most controversial the council had ever issued, with members receiving angry phone calls and politicians arguing the council should be disbanded. The proposal put national tensions between sustainability

  • What Is Cascara? Coffee, Tea, Superfood?
    What is Cascara? Coffee, Tea, Superfood? After walking into a coffee shop in Washington D.C. recently, I was quite surprised that they were promoting a new drink for 2017 on the menu called “Cascara”, with a subtitle stating “Warm and nutty caramel tones made from the skin of coffee cherry blossoms”. I asked the barista if this was tea or coffee. She looked perplexed and said to me, “no, it’s a syrup”. Needless to say I was confused, but intrigued. So I thought to myself, a new drink being showcased at this coffee shop which could seem to be a healthier alternative to coffee, yet it’s syrup. This is the brilliance of marketing, which makes you excited about something new being available as a coffee alternative. I proceeded not to order it because I didn’t fully understand what they were offering. Was it tea, coffee, syrup, or all of it mixed together? Either way, if I was to order Cascara, I would want the real super food coffee cherry tea version I heard of, not a syrup mixed into a hot drink. My visit to this coffee shop left me wondering, what is this elusive Cascara being offered, and is it really coffee or tea? After further research, I found that Cascara (translated from Spanish meaning ‘husk’ or ‘peel’) is also known as coffee cherry skins in English. Cascara must not be confused with the herbal plant with a similar first name, Cascara Sagrada (Chittem Bark), which is completely different and has natural laxative properties when consumed.
