Study Finds the Internet Makes Youth More Engaged Citizens - 74 views
-
-
among adults as well, Internet users were more civically-engaged
-
outh engagement in interest-driven online communities was associated with increased volunteer and charity work and in increased work with others on community issues. The Internet can serve as a gateway to online and offline civic and political engagement, including volunteerism, community problem-solving, and protest activity.

"Arguably, the upheaval, activism and revolutions in of the last two months may serve to counter what has been a longstanding stereotype: youth are largely apolitical. Moreover, those that do participate in politics and activism online do so in shallow ways, the so-called "slacktivism." But recent findings from a longitudinal study of high school-age students challenges these notions, suggesting that youth who pursue their interests online are more likely to be engaged in civic issues."
-
Interesting to read that time spent by many youth online can still promote engagement with the broader society.

“Farmers’ markets aren’t sexy anymore
-
Read on and tell me why Farmers markets have failed to advance the sustainable and local food movement.
-
-
What we need is a system of local “food hubs” that can process and bundle local foods and deliver them to the places where America eats.
-
Perhaps the only thing all these food hubs share is a conviction that there is value in preserving regional identity, artisanal character, and sustainable practices—in saving some products from the great meat grinder of industrial food distribution.
