 Slow Food is a global, grassroots organization with supporters in 150 countries around the world who are linking the pleasure of good food with a commitment to their community and the environment.

A non-profit member-supported association, Slow Food was founded in 1989 to counter the rise of fast food and fast life, the disappearance of local food traditions and people’s dwindling interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes and how our food choices affect the rest of the world.

 Student's Organization for Sustainability is a student run club at Las Positas College in Livermore, CA.

Our goal is to promote awareness of our environmental impact through education, activities and events. We plan to organize tree plantings, coordinate volunteer activities and work together with professors, other students and clubs on campus as well as with local organizations to help foster knowledge of ways to share information and live more sustainable lifestyles.

As society advances, people have become increasingly detached from their food sources. The way modern humans live and eat is incredibly different than the way ancestral populations have dealt with food. This has led to an increased prevalence of human health diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. This program strives to explore material from the Integrative Biology department at UC Berkeley to better understand the benefits plant based nutrition and medicine have on human health.
