Michael Pollan Plant Quotations

Eat mostly plants, especially leaves.

Ecology also teaches that all life on earth can be viewed as a competition among species for the solar energy captured by green plants and stored in the form of complex carbon molecules. A food chain is a system for passing those calories on to species that lack the pant's unique ability to synthesize them from sunlight.

The best farming systems are ones where animals and plants are put into a synergistic relationship.

If it came from a plant, eat it; if it was made in a plant, don't.
