DIET FOR A CHANGING CLIMATE
By Christy Mihaly and Sue Heavenrich
School Library Journal called Diet for a Changing Climate a “great resource for those exploring environmental issues and seeking ways to combat climate change,” and recommended it for Earth Day reading.
The Green Earth Book Awards listed Diet for a Changing Climate as “Recommended Reading” and Horn Book included it as a recommended title on sustainable eating.
Kirkus Reviews praised it as an “optimistic introduction for those who want to ‘take a bite out of climate change.’”
Add crickets to your cookies? Put weeds in your pancakes and salads? That’s what many people—including baseball fans, chefs, and regular people of all ages around the world—are doing. Why? Because they’re tasty! They’re nutritious! And this way of eating can help heal the earth.
Diet for a Changing Climate, co-written with Sue Heavenrich, presents a hopeful message to young people, focusing on how we can make a difference by eating differently. Eating unexpected foods may help us solve the global hunger crisis together while also reducing agricultural emissions of greenhouse gases. Weeds, wild plants, invasive and feral species, and bugs are all options for the climate-conscious plate.
