The U.S. has the lowest lifeexpectancy, the highest obesity rate, and the highest infant mortality rate of the dozen wealthy countries that belong to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). And yet the U.S. spends more money on health care, per capita, than any other nation in the OECD. Award-winning writer and filmmaker Eric Schlosser—the author of Fast Food Nation, a producer of the documentaries Food, Inc. and Food, Inc. 2 (screening Jan. 23)—will discuss the impact of our industrial food system not only on lifespans but also on our quality of life.
