Description

Part memoir, nutritional primer, and political manifesto, this controversial examination exposes the destructive history of agriculture—causing the devastation of prairies and forests, driving countless species extinct, altering the climate, and destroying the topsoil—and asserts that, to be able to save the planet, food should come from within living communities. To ensure that this to happen, the argument champions eating in the community and sustainably and encourages the ones with the resources to grow their very own food. Further examining the question of what to eat from the standpoint of both human and environmental health, the account goes beyond health choices and discusses potential moral issues from eating—or not eating—animals. In the course of the deeply personal narrative of somebody who practiced veganism for 20 years, this unique exploration also discusses alternatives to industrial farming, reveals the hazards of a vegan diet, and explains why animals belong on ecologically sound farms.
