TED talk: What's wrong with what we eat

This TED talk seeks to explain and explore how food is effecting both our health and our environment. Eliminating animals and junk food, which have been proven unnecessary, and increasing our intake of plants will increase the amount of years we live and ensure quality health for those years, so why haven't we moved to a different and healthier lifestyle? Bittman seeks to explore the perks of localvores and the elimination of the processed food that so abundantly plagues our lives.

With a food system so rooted in its ties to agribusiness how do we, as consumers, make the right food choices? Also, what would be an effective and efficient way to educate the general public about what's wrong with what we eat, especially since the main sources of information on food are controlled by lobbyists with agendas?
