Description

Book Synopsis
The Vegetarian Imperative will make you rethink what you eat-and help you save the planet.

Trade Review
"A timely and crucial discussion of the human food supply. People interested in the environment know that a vegetarian diet requires about one-third less fossil energy and cropland to produce food needs, as compared to the average American diet. The vegetarian diet is environmentally sound - and is an imperative." (David Pimentel, Cornell University)"
