Food Cultures Around the World

Dr. Cassandra Coburn joins us to discuss her book Enough: How Your Food Choices Will Save the Planet.

Our food production systems are the single biggest cause of environmental change, while diseases linked to our eating habits are at epidemic levels and increasing. Enough uses the latest scientific research to address the vital question: can we provide a growing population with a healthy diet from sustainable food systems?

Fortunately for us all, the answer is yes and the book shows exactly how we can tackle both of these urgent, interconnected challenges at the same time. Using a seminal piece of research published in 2019, Dr. Coburn reveals the hidden consequences of our food choices, and how we can easily make changes which are better for ourselves and the planet. She details which food groups we should be eating and which we should avoid - and why. Changing our way of eating is something that every one of us has the power to do. Enough is a clear, ultimately hopeful and hugely important roadmap for both our own health - and the planet's.
