More fundamentally, food scarcity may be the first major economic manifestation of an environmentally unsustainable global economy. An early hint of the shift to an economy of scarcity came in late April 1996, when wheat prices on the Chicago Board of Trade soared above $7 a bushel, the highest level in history and more than double the price a year earlier.

Viewers Like You?: How Public TV Has Failed the People by Laurie Ouellette, ISBN 0231119437
How "public" is public television if only a small percentage of the American people tune in on a regular basis? When public television addresses "viewers like you," just who are you? Despite the current of frustration with commercial television that runs through American life, most TV viewers bypass the redemptive "oasis of the wasteland" represented by PBS and turn to other, more "popular" media, "Viewers Like You?" traces the history of public broadcasting in the United States, questions its priorities,...
