Vegetarian Star

Whole Foods is sponsoring the Do Something Reel Film Festival, a collection of films featuring green and environmental themes that will show in commercial theatres across 70 cities from April 1 to mid-May.

The six films examine issues of sustainability the world faces today, with a heavy emphasis on food.

We suggest everyone watch Planeat, a film that looks at Western culture’s obsession with meat and dairy and gives evidence showing a more veggie-based diet could benefit both the environment and human health.

Lunch Line, a film following children from inner city neighborhoods in Chicago as they attempt to fix the broken school lunch system, also sounds great.

Other films include Vanishing of the Bees, On Coal River and Bag It!

“Through our Whole Foods Market Do Something Reel Film Festival we want to raise awareness of environmental and food issues, and support filmmakers who are creating films that inspire people to question the impact our choices have on our health, body and environment,” said Walter Robb, co-CEO of Whole Foods Market. “We see film as an inspirational medium that can spark an active dialogue and encourage people to take action locally.”
