[ music ] >> welcome to comcast local edition, i'm donna richardson, and my guest this hour is christine bergmark who is the executive director of the southern maryland agricultural development commission. welcome, christine, it's good to have you here. >> thank you for having me. >> that's a big mouthful, and i know that you're working on an extremely exciting program, bi-local challenge. >> it is an initial that we launched two years ago, and essentially what it is is the last full week of july we ask everyone across the state of maryland and beyond to take a pledge, and the pledge is eat something or drink from a farm

every day during that week. >> oh. so where do we get the information about where to find the farms or how do we sign up for this pledge? >> well, there's a website. it's www.by-local-challenge.com that website will give you all sorts of information why to buy local and where to buy local and it connects you to other statewide initiatives that are going on at the same time. if you go to the website, we've added a count. people used to say, where do i sign up? normally you have to go buy, eat something from a local farm. this year we decided to add a counter to the website. when you are' counted, you can receive a certificate with your name on it that you can put up in your office or your home or wherever. >> which is very, very important. it's reduces your carbon foot

print because you're driving hopefully a shorter distance, you have access to local products that are available, and also it helps the farmers. >> well, and in fact, our theme this year is healthy plate, healthy planet. all kinds of benefits to buying local, benefits for you, healthy, nutrition, it's fresh, and preserving our farms survive, we keep clean water, we keep clean air, we reduce the carbon footprints from things traveling 1500 miles, and it tastes good. >> exactly. now for those people who may not cook, how can they be a part of this? >> yeah, sometimes people say, well, i hate to cook. that's okay. you can go to a store or to a restaurant that features local farm products, and there are more and more restaurants every year, some of them are on our website, and you can click throughout to find out who they are,. >> what kind of items can we

acquire localfully. >> during the last week of july, there is so much product available. there's sweet corn, blackberries, all kinds of tomatoes and melons are in season, and of course, there's always wine, cheese, eggs, meatss. >> so we do have a wide variety of things we can get. say that i go and i go to a local farmer's market and purchase something, what is a vegetable that i'm not quite familiar with, how did i find a recipe. >> excellent question. there are recipes on our website. people can post their own recipes of their own events and own blogs by why they buy local. some of the things i wanted to mention is the economic benefits. we talked about the planet, we talked about the fact that it

tastes good, and it's fun, but there's also the benefit of supporting our farms, and if every household in the state mucofmaryland were to buy just 2 worth of products for 8 weeks, basically the summer season that, would put $200 million straight back into the pockets of our farmers. that would do a lot to keep our farmers thriving. >> which is so important. i know we have less than 30 seconds, but you have some partners that you wouldn't typically think of who have now joined in. >> yes. hospitals are joining in this year. fact, they're looking to do a competition to see how many people they can get involved. >> have you exciting. christine, thank you very much for coming in today. >> thank you. >> my guest today has been christine bergmark with the southern agricultural commission. if you're interested in what comcast is doing in your area, go to on demand and click get

seeing what has never been seen before that excites people. you can walk the depths of the deepest ocean or the tops of the highest mountains on this planet of ours and you are still on planet earth. i was not. i was on the moon. but rather than a first step for me, it was a last step that i remember most. i looked down at my footsteps, looked over my shoulder, and there was the earth. in all its beauty and all its splendor, and i kept thinking, you know, here i am, you could hardly take your eyes off it. it moved with purpose and beauty beyond your comprehension.

return people to the moon and go beyond that to mars. you've been letting us know your views on this. i-reporter david says it's not just a reasonable idea, it's an important one. >> in 2009, 40 years later, with all of our advancements in computer science and technology, we can do it again and again, cheaper and cheaper, and we should. why let china or india, or any other nation get ahead of us in this arena. this is something we're very good at, we're very good at aerospace, very good at science and we need to continue to push the envelope and push the boundaries of what's possible. >> here's another i-reporter who says the original moon mission gave us a reason to dream. but a new trip would have more practical purposes. >> should america continue to invest in the man/space program, going to the moon, going to mars? absolutely, yes.

why? we will learn quite a bit more about the universe, likewise, it will create quite a few jobs. and not only quite a few jobs, but quite a few high-paying jobs. >> we've also been getting a lot of e-mails from viewers about their thoughts on the space program. karen in akron, ohio, says the government could better spend the money they're spending on restoring film of the first moon landing. there are too many people who don't have health insurance. terry in ohio agrees. he says that space travel should be stopped immediately. we have homeless people in record numbers, our economy has gone south, and we are in a depression. jim in coralville, iowa, says thanks to the moon program, i am able to type this e-mail on a personal computer. the moon program is also responsible for the hdtv in my living room and the cell phone by my side. ben from mobile, alabama, says it would be a great idea for our nation to start preparing for another lunar mission.

is unsustainable. we can't go on with not only such rapidly rising costs but individuals facing constraints on pre-existing conditions and difficulty obtaining insurance and what have you. need to get it done. needs to be deficit neutral. demand the short run, some additional revenue is going to be required. >> the republican leader in the senate claims the united states already has the best health care system in the world. kentucky's mitch mcconnell says there is no need to give it a complete overhaul or hurry through any reform legislation. >> this is the same kind of rush and spend strategy we saw on the stimulus bill. we're going to have a deficit this year of $1.8 trillion that's bigger than the deficit of the last five years combined. they passed a budget that puts us on a path to double a national debt in five years, triple it in ten, and here comes health care on top of it. >> president obama will hold a prime time news conference on wednesday. he's expected to talk about health care. the next day he heads to ohio

you'll hit something. >> so far, logan says she's sent cakes to texas, tennessee, and even iraq. you may consider that fried ipod or your old cell phone lying around as trash, but some young entrepreneurs see dollar signs and they're helping the plan tote boot. maggie lake reports in this week's edition of "e "eco solutions." >> 60. 100. thanks a lot. >> reporter: handing out cold, hard cash on the streets of new york. not a sight many are used to, but the founders of yourenew.com did just that, paying money, in this case, between $100 and $160 in exchange for used iphones outside of apple's flagship new york store. >> we're trying to encourage people to learn about recycling electronics rather than throwing them into landfills. >> reporter: the premise is rather simple -- send in your old outdated consumer gadgets

and depending on their age and condition, these guys will send you cash. the aim is to promote reusage and recycling of old electronics. just over four months old, this site was founded by rich and bob, two schoolmates at yale xwruf university. the pair admit launching a business in the middle of a recession was scary, but they believe recycling e-waste has huge potential. >> i think we've been very lucky with the time we've been in. people are becoming more oi ware of these problems and at the same time we're offering a solution that not only makes sense for the environment but makes sense for our customers. >> reporter: in order to get the word out, the young staff rely on creative low-budget marketing, a technique they use to great success at the launch of the latest apple phone. >> i was in the iphone costume from about 6:00 in the morning till about 9:30. but then the whole team sort of traded through it. >> everybody in new york i

particular case you know, we had the idea, we knew there was sort of a window to execute it and we wanted to jump in headfirst and go after it. i think we both sort of look at it like we're still at yale and we're not leaving. >> reporter: not yet. >> not yet. >> for more great stories on people and businesses going green, head to cnn.com/ecosolutions.
