Longing for a Local Lunch, filmed in 2013, documents four high school students in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, who succeed in getting fresh, local, healthy & nutritious cafeteria and calculate the \"food miles\" that their cafeteria fare travels.The book How We Know What We Know about Our Changing Climate, written with Gary Braasch, has won more than 15 awards including the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) award for the Best Middle Grade Science Book of 2009.
