		<description><![CDATA[One of the big pushbacks currently being undertaken in the media in regards to the swine flu pandemic is the idea that those seeking to link it to factory farming methods and big agri-business are merely opportunists, that factory farms are in no way responsible for this outbreak.

		<description><![CDATA[Tequila lovers everywhere should be worried. Tequila may become a beverage of the past as Mexico is leaving the cactus-like plant from which it is made for more profitable crops. Cash crops like wheat and corn are much more profitable than blue agave.
