Enough: How changing our diet, will save our planet

At first glance I thought this book was going to try to convince me to become a vegetarian, but it turned out to be something more thought-provoking! Using the report of a worldwide review of food and food production from EAT-Lancet and the ‘Planetary Health Diet' plan it came up with, Dr Coburn takes a long and hard look at how the food we eat affects the environment, urging us to eat better and most importantly to reduce the carbon footprint of what we eat, and to eat sustainably. Yes, eating less red meat, more wholegrains and more fruit and veg is an important part of that, but the problems are far wider ranging than cow burps and farts and manure run-off. Apart from clearing land to grow crops, there's how we process them too and ultra-processing is another big factor in poor diets. There is much to glean from this important book - read my full review on my blog here: https://annabookbel.net/enough-by-dr-cassandra-coburn
