Regarding "Films and Chemicals" (Vol.1/No.2) I completely agree with you, Antonov. I hate seeing all these loads of identical, shining apples in shopping malls. The food is loaded with chemicals — the bread never gets old, milk is fresh for days, etc. Where are we heading? I can’t be environmentally friendly even if I’d like to be. Ten years ago we were laughing at Western Europeans who were buying ecological food — it seemed really strange that they were spending more money for the food that is common in Latvia. Now we are sitting in the same puddle — the food is junked up and we have to take a step backwards to return to the food that we used to have 10 years ago. But there is nobody who wants to take this first step.
