About the Book

This book is full of recipes that are good to eat and good for the earth. Check it out. -Ellen DeGeneres

In Food Is the Solution, Matthew Prescott, Senior Food Policy Director for the Humane Society and a leader in the environmental food movement, shows how our plates have the power to heal the world. This lavishly designed resource and recipe collection shows how anyone can help solve the world's major issues--environmental problems chief among them--simply by incorporating more plants into their diets. Featuring investigative reporting, compelling infographics, and essays from notable contributors like Dr. Michael Greger, John Mackey, James Cameron, Paul McCartney, and Wolfgang Puck, Food Is the Solution will inspire us all to put more plants on our plates.

What we eat will determine what kind of world we live in and what kind of world we live on--and Matthew Prescott proves that meat-heavy diets are destroying the planet. Imagine a world in which we are all healthier. Imagine a world where the air is clean, forests dense, water pure, and animal life healthy. That world is a happier world, a better world--and the delectable plant-based foods Prescott shows us how to prepare in Food Is the Solution will help us create it.

"Food is power, and this book will help you use it."
-- Chef David Chang, Momofuku

"Devour this book. Eat it up. It might just save your life and the world."
-- Michael Greger, MD, New York Times-bestselling author of How Not to Die
