I hadn’t until just now.

A co-worker of mine just forwarded this video to me. It’s eye-opening and frightening. It’s O’Brien speaking at TEDx Austin in 2011. She defines herself as “an unlikely crusader for cleaning up the food supply“… but that’s exactly what she is. There’s more to eating organic than just trying to eat better. It’s about protecting your health and the health of your children.

I took this endorsement from O’Brien’s site:

“I believe that in the absence of the truth, all of us stand helpless to defend ourselves, our families and our health, which is the greatest gift we have. You don’t have to be a doctor or a scientist to look into whether our food supply is safe, and Robyn O’Brien’s courageous pursuit of THE UNHEALTHY TRUTH is an example of how we can all do our parts to protect the health of our families.” -Erin Brockovich
