Notes

General Note
Updated with a new afterword by the author. Includes discussion questions.
General Note
"From raising cattle in industrial-scale feedlots to razing rainforests to make palm oil for Pop-Tarts, the choices we make about how we put food on our plates, and what we do with the waste, contribute as much as one third of total greenhouse-gas emissions. Lappé exposes sustainability spin tactics while tackling some of the biggest myths about organic food and offering up inspiration and practical advice."
Bibliography
Includes bibliographical references (pages 261-291) and index.
Description
Discusses the effects of transporting food on the climate, how the food industry is becoming aware of its part in global warming, the emerging solutions from farmers, and the seven principles for a climate-friendly diet.
