Honourable Mention, Science Writers and Communicators of Canada Book Award, 2020\n"This book offers an amazing insight to the global food supply chain, the issues that climate change is likely to cause, a wealth of information on the history of our current system and several brilliant and well-researched solutions to certain issues we face. I would highly recommend this book." -Environmental Values\nA menu for an edible future\nIn a world expected to reach a staggering population of 9 billion by 2050, and with global temperatures rising fast, humanity must fundamentally change the way it grows and consumes food. But can we produce enough food to feed ourselves sustainably for an uncertain future? How will agriculture adapt to a climate change? How will climate change determine what we eat? Will we really be eating bugs?\nUncertain Harvest questions scientists, chefs, activists, entrepreneurs, farmers, philosophers, and engineers working on the global future of food on how to make a more equitable, safe, sustainable, and plentiful food future. Examining cutting-edge research on the science, culture, and economics of food, the authors present a roadmap for a global food policy, while examining eight foods that could save us: algae, caribou, kale, millet, tuna, crickets, milk, and rice.
