Description

The global food production system is responsible for a quarter of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions caused by humans. The food we waste accounts for 8 to 10% of those emissions, and we could feed an extra 2.4 billion people with everything that gets thrown away. Nearly 1 billion adults die from malnutrition or starvation each year, while around 670 million adults are obese. Food distribution is unbalanced and unfair. This book is a guide to eating healthily for yourself as well as for the planet; it features over 60 recipes created by PJ Taste, a catering company who have always put sustainability at the heart of their business, which are designed to offer information and inspiration for finding a balance that benefits your body and its environment. You will also find compelling facts and figures about global food production and plenty of ideas about how, by making small changes to your food choices, you can make a difference in the fight against the biggest challenge of our time: climate change.
