About the Book

This book makes the case for an urgent move away from industrial agriculture towards regenerative farming and the promotion of plant-based diets. How we produce, distribute and consume food are critical issues for the health and well-being of humans, animals and the environment. In order to develop a sustainable food system, this book argues for a radical change in farming and food consumption. Containing contributions from world renowned experts, this book promotes regenerative farming as the means to preserve planetary health, establish sustainable, healthy and secure diets and safeguard the welfare of animals. Chapters discuss broad ranging issues from climate change and biodiversity conservation to animal sentience and intensive farming, and the role of financial markets and food businesses. The book concludes with chapters discussing the routes in policy and practice to transforming the food system and achieving real-world change. This book is a must read for students, scholars and policymakers interested in establishing sustainable farming and food systems, for human health, animal welfare and environmental protection.

Review :
“This must read book emphasises the importance of regenerative farming, agroforestry and permaculture. These methods of farming work with rather than against nature, restore biodiversity, help to and slow down climate change. They can become truly sustainable and feed us for generations to come.” Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, Founder - the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of Peace “This inspiring book cuts through so much of today's wretched jargon about regenerative farming, and tells it as it is: it's impossible to regenerate agriculture today without significantly reducing meat consumption” Jonathon Porritt, Campaigner and Author. “If Earth is to have a future, humans will need to live differently within the web of life that feeds us. This future will like a liberation, if only we can unlock it. The keys to tomorrow’s plates are in this wide-ranging, challenging, surprising, and ultimately hopeful collection of some of the planet’s finest thinkers on the future of food.” Raj Patel, author, film-maker and academic.
