Is animal agriculture worth the cost to our planet? This thought-provoking book explores the environmental, health, and ethical issues tied to raising animals for food and offers a comprehensive look at solutions for a sustainable future.

Menu of Hope begins by dissecting the role of animal agriculture in climate change, drawing on scientific findings from the IPCC and other sources. It sheds light on why estimates of its impact vary and why this matters in addressing the crisis. The role of animal agriculture is only set to expand. Demand for meat is expected to grow by 50% or more in the next few decades. Animal agriculture already plays a major role in the climate crisis. But climate is not the only crisis caused by raising animals. Loss of biodiversity, deforestation, environmental pollutants, and pandemics are all problems exacerbated by our insatiable appetite for animal products.

In its solutions-focused chapters, Menu of Hope evaluates approaches ranging from agricultural efficiency and carbon capture to cutting-edge food technologies, major public health interventions and vegan activism. Each solution is assessed for its potential to create meaningful change.

The final chapter emphasizes activism, policy change, and the importance of collective action in tackling one of the greatest challenges of our time.
