But he won’t be playing any music, instead he’ll share something else with us.  A vegetarian for more than two decades, and vegan for more than 15 years, Moby is also the editor (with Miyun Park) of Gristle: From Factory Farms to Food Safety (Thinking Twice About the Meat We Eat)

gristle

This book compiles writings by food experts who show how and why the overconsumption of industrially-produced meat harms agricultural workers, communities, the environment, and human health—as well as the animals.  The book explores everything from the effects of factory farming on the environment to the toxins we’re exposing to our children. It’s a fascinating read, and if you live in the Seattle area, you can attend a talk tomorrow night at Town Hall with Moby titled “Future of Health: Thinking Twice about the Meat We Eat.” Doors are at 6:30 pm, and the event runs from 7:30 to 9:00 pm, and will include a discussion, Q&A, and a book signing.
