"Authenticity seems to be the value of the moment, rolling off the tongues of politicians, celebrities, Web gurus, college admissions advisers, reality television stars.

Video: Chipotle + Green Farming + Cold Play & Willie Nelson = Amazing Video

The experience is enhanced by the Willie Nelson cover of Coldplay's "The Scientist". Watch and enjoy!
