Carbon-Conscious Cooking - Book - Page 4
“The role of nature and its phenomenal occurrences in technological development
and societal progress cannot be overstated.I believe that by cultivating lifestyles
that equip both our bodies and natural ecosystems to function optimally, we can
create a viable environment for more efficient and unprecedented levels of
technological development for all peoples- both alive now and in the future. Carbon
Conscious Cooking is therefore a means to open doors of progress for us all: firstly
as individuals then as a global community.”
— Jonathan Ojangole, Founder of Kairos Energy, Social Entrepreneur
“Carbon Conscious Cooking is an excellent resource for those looking for ways to
shrink their footprint and live more gently on the planet. Everyone eats, so
everyone can participate. Capetz makes it easy for people to make healthy,
delicious recipes that swap higher-carbon meat and/or dairy for plant-forward
options. The book smartly includes visuals to help the reader realize the impact of
plant-forward choices.”
— Margie Suozzo, MPA, MSES, Co-Founder of GreenTown Los Altos,
Member of GreenTown’s Eating Green Campaign
“From the intro of describing how our diets impact our environment to the ending of
how we can do more to help the cause this is truly the most useful cookbook I have
read. All of these dishes look delicious and doable! I thought it was incredibly
beneficial to see the visual graph comparing meat and plant-based carbon
emissions.”
