Mals, Italy, has long been known as the breadbasket of the Tyrol. But recently the tiny town became known for something else entirely. A Precautionary Tale tells us why, introducing readers to an unlikely group of activists and a forward-thinking mayor who came together to ban pesticides in Mals by a referendum vote, making it the first place on Earth to accomplish such a feat, and a model for other towns and regions to follow. For hundreds of years, the people of Mals had cherished their traditional foodways and kept their local agriculture organic. Their town had become a mecca for tourists drawn by the alpine landscape, the rural and historic character of the villages, and the fine breads, wines, cheeses, herbs, vegetables, and the other traditional foods they produced.

Annoying narration
Revisado: 02-21-20
I was hoping this book would give a little more depth about the process and the science used to get this area pesticide free. I didn't enjoy the story line as I was more interested in the facts. The narration was especially annoying when it came to the numbers. Giving every dollar vs euro, acre vs hectare, mile vs kilometer, not to mention the random phrase read in another language then again in English. I wanted to hear the conclusion of what happened but did not enjoy the book at all.
