This post is simply to applaud your good work and to let you know that as a small family farm in Kansas, it truly helps keep us going to know that there is support for local, sustainable agriculture. As is typical of small farms, hard work and focus on the daily struggles to keep our buffalo herd fed, doesn't allow enough time to experience other parts of the country and world. Your website has been a great resource and inspiration that there is support and that people truly do care about the treatment, food sources and handling of their food. The environmental and economic impact of diminishing small family farms is yet to be seen. I've especially been interested in the awesome work Simran is doing in raising the conscience in our community of Lawrence, KS. We were recently involved in the Sundance Network's production on eating and buying locally, so just want to add my thanks to Simran for this awesome series. I'd love to meet and talk with you sometime, collaborate on behalf of our local Farmers' Market, but also understand you're a very busy person. Best wishes to everyone involved. I'd be happy to assist in any way I can, especially in raising awareness about the benefits of grass-fed meat and lack of quality control found in mass-production facilities and processing plants.

I applaud you for your efforts and eagerly await your interview with Al Gore tomorrow. I trust you will grill him (no pun intended) on his refusal to address the issue of animal agriculture and its contribution to global warming. As I'm sure you know, A recent 400-page UN report found that animal agriculture is responsible for 18% of greenhouse gases (more than cars, buses, planes, and all other forms of transportation combined). The easiest and most direct way we, as a species, can help the planet is to switch to a plant-based diet.
Until now, Mr. Gore has conspicuously avoided the subject. This is very troubling to true environmentalists. I hope you will find a way to impress upon the urgency of recognizing it's connection to global warming and the importance of promoting a plant-based diet.

Hi I need to get in touch with Simran Sethi. How can I do that?

I'm so psyched that you're a Smithie kicking some serious green ass! Way to go! I'm so proud of your great work.

As an aspiring environmental and social entrepreneur and a student of CSR, your example inspires and lights my path. Graduating this May, Im exploring the field for work and would love to ask some questions if possible. Thank you for the good pioneering work you do. You pave the way for others like me.

Hello Simran,

I am very impressed by your efforts to preserve the environment.

My wife saw you on the Opera show and was very impressed as well.

I am very environmentally conscious myself and always figuring out ways how to motivate the masses to do their bit and save the earth.

I have written a poem which has moved people to take action. From the comments I have received from many people, they say it should receive much wider publicity in order to benefit the Earth.

I read the poem at the Verma residence in Montreal and your aunt Asha Verma liked it so much that she asked me to contact you.

I would like to discuss the poem and the message and brainstorm with you to magnify the benefits and do MORE THAN OUR BIT to save the earth.

In admiration of your efforts,

Sukhvinder Jutla
