I am a former marketer who turned my hand to sustainability. I taught classes on sustainable food systems at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena , CA and write about sustainable food and wine, the intersection of food and marketing and food politics. I am also the author of Greening Your Small Business (Random House Penguin). I have four kids, a dog, a hamster and an MBA – you can follow me on Twitter: @jenikaplan.
