Love the Foods That Love the Planet
Recipes that Cool the Climate and Excite the Senses
What we eat and how we produce it matters. We know our world is careening toward warming tipping points beyond which recovery may not be possible. Shifting the food supply away from animals to plants as much as possible can drastically lower greenhouse gases and buy us the time we need to prevent irreversible harm and devastating outcomes. A plant-based diet also prolongs life, vitality, strengthens immunity, and gains protection from chronic illness and infectious disease. A healthy body and a healthy planet are linked.
We all have more agency than we think when it comes to climate change. Our food choices influence our social and family circles, which in turn collectively drive consumer demand and market response. For those who are concerned with the pressing climate crisis and who want to mitigate the growing threats of extreme weather, wildfires, loss of biodiversity, and food insecurity, Cathy Katin-Grazzini has carefully created and compiled a delicious medley of powerful plant-based recipes that help revitalize the health of our environment and our bodies.
Love the Foods That Love the Planet is loaded with recipes that are packed with climate challenge insights, featuring both creative and traditional cuisine from around the world, and accompanied by eye popping photography by Giordano Katin-Grazzini. These recipes range from simple and quick for weekday suppers to special and celebratory for weekends and entertaining and all of them help save the planet. For all who are environmentally conscious and want to bring a mindful approach to their diet but don’t want to skimp on taste, Love the Foods That Love the Planet provides an active solution for home cooks—from the newbie to the most experienced chef. Help is here, in this climate friendly cookbook.
