Green Wine

The New York Times had an op-ed piece about wine and the environment: Red, White or Green?

Apparently Ohio is the "break even" point for the carbon impact of shipping wine from California or Bordeux. "East of Ohio, a bottle from Bordeaux creates less carbon dioxide emission; to the west, California wine has the edge." Mom and Dad, I guess that means you can drink from either and still be environmentally sound. Or you could choose some delicious Ohio wine.

(Yeah, I posted something about the carbon footprint of wine earlier. I suspect Jason is still trying to figure out why anyone cares about Ohioans drinking wine.)
