About this listen

Here, the man who started the "food revolution" with the million-plus-selling Diet for a New America, boldly posits that, collectively, our personal diet can save ourselves and the world. If, according to chaos theory, the beating of a butterfly's wing can cause a hurricane in another part of the world, try this out for chaotic cause and effect: monarch butterflies are dying in droves due to genetically-engineered corn growing in the Midwest. There is also a direct correlation between the Big Mac in your hand and the mile-wide river now running across the North Pole. Learn the truth about foods we are eating that are, in Robbins' words, "unsafe on any plate."

Must read if you care about anything1

This book neatly and convincingly ties together the topics of human health, animal welfare, care for the environment, and climate change. It is an essential, important story, told sincerely.

Enlightening...what we all should know about food

What did you like most about The Food Revolution?

The information is this book empowers you to make a difference to the current corporate power structure - eg food production and pharmaceuticals, environment, improve personal health, and animal welfare - all by choosing what food you put into your mouth.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Made me sad about the state of the world but hopeful that individuals can make a difference.

Any additional comments?

Buy it or borrow it and listen or read. Then make the changes...

Didn't manage to finish it

Although I agree with the overall idea of the book, its a bit preachy & I don't agree that being a vegan is better for you than not, so I found this book a little difficult
