Keepin' It Local

These days, many of us eat food that has been shipped in from Iowa or get our news from a network half way across the country. But even as corporations like Walmart and Clear Channel broaden their reach, author Bill McKibben argues that there might be a new trend to keep things local. We'll talk to him about what it means for businesses to "stay local" and we'll ask him why its important. Bill McKibben is the author of many books including The End of Nature and Enough: Staying Human in an Engineered Age and scholar in residence at Middlebury College.
