Why Did I Write This Cookbook?

2024 is poised to exceed 2023 as the hottest year on record. Extreme weather events, from fires to floods, occur more intensely than ever in every corner of the planet.

The food sector generates over one-third of the total greenhouse gas emissions that drive climate change. That's an enormous piece of the climate puzzle!

The main driver of food emissions is what we put in our mouths every meal.

Changing what we eat, even incrementally, can reap enormous benefits by slowing climate change and safeguarding biodiversity. 

This may be the first cookbook to weave delicious, very low-carbon recipes from around the world with ingredients' climate footprint data and a discussion of the specific climate challenges facing individual countries and crops. I suggest ways home cooks can slash their individual climate footprints and make a difference. Incidentally, the foods that cool the climate are optimal for us, too, so it's a win-win.

Methane - From Wikipedia

Most of Earth's methane occurs in landfills and ruminants. Ruminants, such as cattle, belch methane, accounting for about 22% of the U.S. annual methane emissions to the atmosphere. One study reported that the livestock sector (primarily cattle, chickens, and pigs) produces 37% of all human-induced methane.

Wetlands are another large source of methane in the atmosphere, accounting for approximately 20 - 30% of atmospheric methane. Climate change increases the methane released from wetlands due to increased temperatures and altered rainfall patterns. This phenomenon is called wetland methane feedback.

From Wikipedia
Rice cultivation generates as much as 12% of total global methane emissions due to the long-term flooding of rice fields.
