Food is the Solution: What to Eat to Save the World

Join us to discuss Food is the Solution: What to Eat to Save the World by Matthew Prescott. Everyone is encouraged to try a recipe or two before the discussion and share what worked (or didn’t).

This book succinctly discusses why and how a plant-based diet benefits both planet and people while factory-farming worsens climate change. It details how today's farming practices negatively affect soil, oceans, water quality, air quality, and fire risk. The author offers a realistic way to incorporate plant-based foods into the typical meat-centered diet, and discusses how they help to lower risk factors for several diseases. The book provides a substantial number of recipes with information about the substituted ingredients.

In partnership with Go Green Northbrook.

Two ways to get the book:

1. Pick up a copy at the Reference Desk on the 2nd floor beginning August 15.

2. Place a hold and wait to be notified.
