Download or read book The Zero Waste Chef written by Anne-Marie Bonneau and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *SHORTLISTED for the 2021 Gourmand World Cookbook Award* *SHORTLISTED for the 2022 Taste Canada Award for Single-Subject Cookbooks* A sustainable lifestyle starts in the kitchen with these use-what-you-have, spend-less-money recipes and tips, from the friendly voice behind @ZeroWasteChef. In her decade of living with as little plastic, food waste, and stuff as possible, Anne-Marie Bonneau, who blogs under the moniker Zero-Waste Chef, has preached that "zero-waste" is above all an intention, not a hard-and-fast rule. Because, sure, one person eliminating all their waste is great, but thousands of people doing 20 percent better will have a much bigger impact. And you likely already have all the tools you need to begin. In her debut book, Bonneau gives readers the facts to motivate them to do better, the simple (and usually free) fixes to ease them into wasting less, and finally, the recipes and strategies to turn them into self-reliant, money-saving cooks and makers. Rescue a hunk of bread from being sent to the landfill by making Mexican Hot Chocolate Bread Pudding, or revive some sad greens to make a pesto. Save 10 dollars (and the plastic tub) at the supermarket with Yes Whey, You Can Make Ricotta Cheese, then use the cheese in a galette and the leftover whey to make sourdough tortillas. With 75 vegan and vegetarian recipes for cooking with scraps, creating fermented staples, and using up all your groceries before they go bad--including end-of-recipe notes on what to do with your ingredients next--Bonneau lays out an attainable vision for a zero-waste kitchen.

This book was released on 2006-08-24 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any strategy to cope with an influenza pandemic must be based on the knowledge and tools that are available at the time an epidemic may occur. In the near term, when we lack an adequate supply of vaccine and antiviral medication, strategies that rely on social distancing and physical barriers will be relatively more prominent as means to prevent spread of disease. The use of respirators and facemasks is one key part of a larger strategy to establish barriers and increase distance between infected and uninfected individuals. Respirators and facemasks may have a role in both clinical care and community settings. Reusability of Facemasks During an Influenza Pandemic: Facing the Flu answers a specific question about the role of respirators and facemasks to reduce the spread of flu: Can respirators and facemasks that are designed to be disposable be reused safely and effectively? The committee-assisted by outstanding staff-worked intensively to review the pertinent literature; consult with manufacturers, researchers, and medical specialists; and apply their expert judgment. This report offers findings and recommendations based on the evidence, pointing to actions that are appropriate now and to lines of research that can better inform future decisions.

Book excerpt: Are you experiencing challenges getting a face mask at the supermarkets or online stores? Do you simply need a step by step instruction with illustrations that can help you make your own face mask in 10 minutes or less, even if you have no sewing experience? If so, then read on... It is advised that everyone should wear a face cloth covering when in public places to reduce or avoid the risk of the transmission of toxic air particles or droplets from respiratory infections. This has resulted in the scarcity of face masks in supermarkets and online stores, most especially, the medical face masks and the N95 respirators, which are reserved for use by healthcare professionals. The scarcity of this essential commodity has led the general public to seek out alternative means of making their own face masks from home, and as a result, the internet has become flooded with several Do-It-Yourself homemade face mask guides, many of which do not take into cognizance the recommended fabrics and materials that should be used as well as its corresponding alternatives if the recommended is unavailable. Nonetheless, it is surprisingly easy to make a DIY face mask using materials you most likely have at home; however, not everyone has the experience in using the sewing machine to make a face mask, and if this is you, then not to worry because this book does not only cater for people with experience in using the sewing machine but also people with no experience using the sewing machine, threads and needle. This book also seeks to provide you with alternatives in case the recommended fabrics and materials are not available. At the end of this book, you will: Gain a deeper understanding of what face mask is and its importance against toxic air particles or droplets from respiratory infections. Be enlightened on the different types of face masks used for protection, the efficacy of each type of masks, as well as when and who should use them. Know how face masks work in protecting you from toxic air particles or droplets of respiratory infections. Understand the real benefits of making your own face mask from home. Know the best fabrics to use if you want to make a reusable homemade face mask. Know why you should not use some of the commonly recommended fabrics for your face mask. Uncover all you need to get started in making your own face mask with the sewing and no-sewing methods, such as the material lists, measurement and cut list for adults and kids, as well as the step by step instructions to follow. Be familiar with the best practice for wearing and removing a face mask ...and much more.

Download or read book Materiability written by Manuel Kretzer and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materiability is design by making, an understanding of actively learning from and about the world by physically engaging in it. The immediate connection between matter and human senses, such as touch, smell, sound or visuals, forms the basis for bodily explorations, engagements, and experiences. Materiability is a call to take action, to cease accepting the status-quo as given but instead speculate and dream about possible alternatives. It is about sharing these dreams with others, about communication, exchange, collaboration and open, unrestricted access to information. Materiability is the belief in a future that is shaped by our common efforts. It is about inspiration, ideas and visions. About understanding challenges not as problems that need to be solved but as opportunities from which new can emerge. Materiability is a playground for probing tomorrow.
