Over the course of nine days in the spring of 2012, John and Ocean
Robbins gathered together leading insights from some of the world's
brilliant scientists, doctors, and nutritionists. They conducted
more than 20 galvanising and deeply informative interviews,
broadcast worldwide at The Food Revolution Summit. This book
collects these interviews making them available in book form. The
inspiring collection includes passionate conversations with the
leading voices of food politics today.
Since the first edition of this book, beef consumption in the
United States has fallen by 19%. 'Diet for a new America' is
considered by many to be one of the most important contributors to
this dramatic shift in eating habits. The author shows how the
production, preparation, and consumption of food can once again be
a healthy process by omitting meat entirely from the food chain.

Agriculture & Food Policy, Vegetables, Special Diet, Vegan
& Vegetarian, Healthy Living, Personal Health, and Diets &
Weight Loss A book from the over-one-million-copies-sold author who
made popular the connections between diet, physical health, animal
cruelty, and environmentalism. A revolution in food-politics. When
John Robbins released an early version of this book in 1987, he
took the first steps in the food revolution. His insight into the
harm caused by America’s eating habits was a wake-up call for
many. Making conscious food choices. It is obvious to us that what
we eat affects our bodies, but what we may not realize is that what
we eat also affects our world. In fact, most of the foods that are
bad for us (think genetically modified products) also negatively
impact our environment. By approaching our eating habits with
intentionality, we benefit our own health and that of the world we
live in. Plant-based diet benefits. Arguments for a plant-based
diet are compelling and backed by over 20 years of work by Robbins
focused on the subject of conscious eating. Exposing the dangers in
our factory farming system, Robbins makes a definitive case for
solely plant-based eating. This timely read on healthy eating will
enlighten those curious about plant-based diets and fortify the
mindsets of the already converted. Read The Food Revolution and
discover: The negative effects of your current eating habits A
powerful case for plant-based eating Wisdom from one of the most
frequently cited books of the food-politics revolution If you have
read books such as We are the Weather, How Not to Die, 31-Day Food
Revolution, or Fast Food Genocide, then The Food Revolution is a
must read!

Millions of people realize that their food choices can help-or
hurt-the earth. They want to reduce their "food footprint," but
with so many decisions to make (omnivore or vegetarian, organic or
conventional, local or global), how is a busy person to navigate
all the possibilities? The Green Foodprint: Food Choices for
Healthy People and a Healthy Planet is a concise, easy-to-read, and
practical guide through the new world of healthful food that is
also easier on the environment. The book is packed with inspiring
facts and stories about how readers can make a big difference with
a few wise decisions. Appealing to a wide range of readers and
eaters, The Green Foodprint describes five memorable guidelines,
and the many healthful, earth-friendly options available within
each guideline. Against the background of a flawed industrial food
system, the book highlights positive changes and the power of
citizens to help themselves and the earth with their food choices.
Likely audiences include people interested in sustainability,
students and educators at all levels from middle school through
university, health care providers, nutritionists, people concerned
about their health, environmentalists, journalists, foodies, animal
lovers, vegetarians, and parents of young children.Why is this book
unique? Trade books on the environment fall into two broad
categories: long, detailed narratives, exposes, or descriptions of
specific industries; and lifestyle overview surveys that offer
checklists for actions individuals can take. The former tend to be
very detailed and depressing, leaving readers to deduce what to do.
The latter tend to be superficial and try to cover too many aspects
of American life. The Green Foodprint combines the best of both. It
covers one domain-food-and shows how readers can make
earth-friendly choices that have proven results. The book gives
them enough information so they can appreciate the challenges we
face, and also lists specific actions they can take. Rather than
preaching a single approach, the book offers assurance that there
are many earth-friendly food options and the encouragement to
select the ones that make the most sense for each individual
reader. Set off in an easy-to-read format are dozens of inspiring
vignettes of real individuals and groups that are healing our food
world.155 pages, plus sources and index. Second edition (new
title). Foreword by John Robbins, author of the groundbreaking book
The Food Revolution. The Green Foodprint is highly recommended by
experts in the worlds of food, environment, and health.
