By setting the table with food and facts, Alejandra provides anyone who cares about the food they eat with plenty of inspiration for creating meals that taste—and do—good.” – Courtney Hazlett, executive producer and creator, Netflix’s Restaurants on the Edge “Our planet is in a crisis. Food systems are in a crisis. Rates of malnutrition—stunting and starvation and obesity—are on the increase. Many countries around the world have adopted farming and production patterns that are designed for convenient consumption and mass calories rather than the sustainability of the planet and good health. With more than 30,000 edible plants available on Earth, it’s criminal we have come to rely on 3 crops for more than 60% of our calories. It’s crucial we understand the relationship between nutrition and the health of our bodies—as well as planetary health—in order to care for our planet and to change food systems for the better. However, we can’t talk about planetary health, food systems, and nutrition without discussing flavor, taste, and emotions! People connect with food because it nourishes not just their bodies but also their souls. Alejandra has the passion and emotion required to create beautiful recipes that speak to the soul as well as the knowledge and conviction to speak with authority on the need to reduce our carbon impact in order to sustain the planet while increasing our individual and collective health. In The Low-Carbon Cookbook, Alejandra guides us through how to choose and cook ingredients that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, with the ultimate goal of changing how we interact with food for the better—all while bringing her natural flair and talent for creating delicious dishes that encourage good food for all.” – Paul Newnham, director of the SDG2 Advocacy Hub Secretariat and the Chefs’ Manifesto “What people eat affects all parts of their lives as well as life on this planet. It’s not enough anymore to only consider nutrition, health, and enjoyment, but we must further consider climate, the environment, and the livelihoods of food workers and producers in all parts of the world. We must also do it knowing fully well that our choices impact people far removed from us, particularly through the effect on climate. The Low-Carbon Cookbook brings together a contribution of thoughtful ideas about how we can choose what we eat in a way that’s not only good for us but also for other people, for our planet, and for our collective prosperity.” – Dr. Agnes Kalibata, special envoy of the UN Secretary-General for the Food Systems Summit “Good for my body and good for our planet—that’s my mantra for deciding what to eat, cook, and buy. Lucky for us, Alejandra has taken the guess work out of making healthy, planet-friendly meals that are deeply satisfying. These creative and flexible recipes make it easy to be better citizens of the planet and shepherds of our health.” – Mary Sue Milliken, chef and food systems advocate

Moore offers his own tried-and-true grilling recipes for every part of the meal, from starters and salads to handhelds (Tacos al Pastor, Pork Gyros) and big plates (Country-Style Ribs with Peach Salsa) to desserts (Grilled-Doughnut Ice Cream Sandwiches).

Book CLIMATE CHANGE and the Road to NET ZERO

Download or read book CLIMATE CHANGE and the Road to NET ZERO written by Mathew Hampshire-Waugh and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CLIMATE CHANGE and the road to NET-ZERO is a story of how humanity has broken free from the shackles of poverty, suffering, and war and for the first time in human history grown both population and prosperity. It's also a story of how a single species has reconfigured the natural world, repurposed the Earth's resources, and begun to re-engineer the climate. The book uses these conflicting narratives to explore the science, economics, technology, and politics of climate change. NET-ZERO blows away the entrenched idea that solving global warming requires a trade-off between the economy and environment, present and future generations, or rich and poor, and reveals why a twenty-year transition to a zero carbon system is a win-win solution for all on planet Earth. From the Author "I wrote Climate Change and the road to Net-Zero to provide a generalist reader with a clear, comprehensive, and objective take on the issues surrounding climate change and air pollution. The book walks the reader through a history of energy, innovation, and the rise of human civilisation; how scientists have come to understand our past climate and can now forecast future change; the problems economists encounter as they attempt to piece together the potential monetary and social damages from climate inaction; and a technology agnostic assessment of potential climate change solutions (from climate-engineering to mitigation) including their costs, risks, and limitations. The book demonstrates why sustainable technologies such as wind, solar, and batteries get cheaper with scale of production, not time, and why a rapid transition to a fully-fledged net-zero system will end up significantly cheaper than remaining bound to fossil fuels, whilst also avoiding the worst impacts of climate change, and preventing nearly eight million premature deaths each year from air pollution. I hope Climate Change and the road to Net-Zero delivers an understanding of humanity's relationship with Earth that is as intriguing as Simon Lewis and Mark Maslin's The Human Planet, or Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens. I very much hope too that the book conveys the passion and call to action of David Wallace-Well's The Uninhabitable Earth, coupled with the sober economic analysis of The Climate Casino by William Nordhaus or Capital in the 21st century by Thomas Piketty, and that it provides the technical rigour of Sustainable Energy Without The Hot Air by David MacKay, the rationality of Hans Rosling's Factfulness, and the eternal hope of The Future We Choose by Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac. I believe net-zero will be cheaper, cleaner, safer, more reliable, more sustainable, and will create more employment than if we remain bound to fossil fuels. After reading the book, I hope you will agree." Mathew Hampshire-Waugh, Author.

Download or read book The Low Carbon Cookbook Action Plan written by Alejandra Schrader and published by Dorling Kindersley Ltd. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use your dining room table to help you combat climate change. When you go to the supermarket to buy groceries, you probably don't think much about how everything got to the store. There are the farmers, the harvesting machines, the delivery trucks, the stockers, and countless other people involved in getting meats and produce and ice cream from where they're made to your kitchen. But there are many real costs involved--and most of them involve impacts to the environment more than to bank accounts. Food production contributes one-fourth of our global greenhouse gas emissions. This is a significant number that's part of the climate change conversation. But you can take a few small steps to help lower that number--and The Low-Carbon Cookbook will show you how. This book will include science-backed information on how to make the most-climate friendly choices--from examining the impact of the supply chain for the foods that end up on our plates to evaluating the carbon footprint of various plant-based options we have. The Low-Carbon Cookbook will also feature 140 plant-based recipes made almost exclusively with locally sourced ingredients. If you're looking for a way to combat climate change from your kitchen, this book will help you with your goals.
