I liked the Conscious Carnivore link, very informative.
Farmers' markets are great, but sometimes not close enough (e.g. using up gas to get there), for most people. I'm trying to tell myself that driving a bit to a local market offsets the emissions, to gain organic produce. Any suggestions?

NO. And questions like that are pro-meat propaganda.

Thanks for comment! As for farmer's markets, it's definitely frustrating when you have to drive longer than necessary to get good, local food. Almost defeats the purpose, non?

You could try carpooling with friends or put an add on craigslist for a ride share to and from. Or you could offset your carbon emissions for about a month's worth of trips at http://www.carbonfund.org/
