        The food of the future

        by Dr. Malte Rubach

        It is time to counter the numerous utopias, myths and established narratives of the future of nutrition with a fact-based scenario. This book shows where the natural limits of what is currently technologically feasible lie and how the global diversity of food cultures will ensure the survival of humanity in the future. It exposes the great promises of meat substitutes from the laboratory as well as vegan renunciation scenarios, and shows a realistic path for the future of global nutrition along the lines of the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

        Food Myths and the Rapid Change of Food Culture

        by Manfred Kriener

        This book is not a manual but provides an information kit so we can find our way intelligently and make decisions. Nutrition is a constant talking point, but often there is a lack of knowledge and judgement. Amidst this confusion of facts, Manfred Kriener clarifies the rapid change of our food culture. He covers the entire range from the vegan trend to insect food, from aquaculture to cultured meat. Kriener also focuses on the various obscure quality seals, chaotic labelling on the wine rack and our inconsistency as consumers. The new world of food in eleven chapters, spicy at times, but plenty of food for thought and to whet the appetite.

        Tillys Kinderkram. Tilly wird fast Vegetarianerin

        by Jasmin Schaudinn, Angela Gstalter

        In "Tillys Kinderkram. Tilly wird fast Vegetarianerin" begleitet Jasmin Schaudinn junge Leser auf eine humorvolle Entdeckungsreise durch die Augen der lebhaften Tilly, die sich plötzlich mit dem Konzept des Vegetarismus konfrontiert sieht. Inspiriert von ihrem kindergärtnerischen Vorbild Devin, beginnt Tilly zu hinterfragen, was es bedeutet, Vegetarier zu sein, insbesondere als sie realisiert, dass ihre geliebte Salami tatsächlich aus Fleisch besteht. Dies führt zu einem charmanten inneren Konflikt und dem Versuch, sich an eine fleischlose Ernährung zu gewöhnen – zumindest vorübergehend. Neben diesem großen Vorhaben taucht Tilly zusammen mit ihrer Freundin Azra in eine Welt voller kindlicher Fantasien ein, die von künstlichen Nägeln aus Spielsteinen bis zu selbstgebastelten Handys reicht. Ihr Entschluss, Vegetarierin zu werden, wird auf die Probe gestellt, als die Aussicht auf Chicken Nuggets mit ihrem Vater sie wieder in Versuchung führt. Diese Geschichte fängt auf bezaubernde Weise die Neugierde, die Widersprüche und das Entdecken neuer Ideen im Kindesalter ein, verpackt in eine Erzählung über Freundschaft, Familie und die ersten Schritte hin zu bewussteren Entscheidungen. Kindliche Perspektive auf aktuelle Themen: Erschließt Trendthemen wie gesunde Ernährung und Vegetarismus auf eine Weise, die für Kinder verständlich und ansprechend ist. Ermutigung zu Selbstreflexion und Neugier: Regt junge Leser*innen ab 4 Jahren dazu an, über ihre eigenen Essgewohnheiten nachzudenken und sich auf das Abenteuer neuer Erfahrungen einzulassen. Einblick in kindliche Fantasiewelten: Neben der Auseinandersetzung mit dem Vegetarismus taucht das Buch tief in die kreative und fantasievolle Welt von Kindern ein. Humorvolle und lebensnahe Erzählweise: Mit viel Witz und Charme werden die kleinen und großen Fragen des Alltags aus der Sicht eines Kindes beleuchtet. Begleitender Podcast „Kinderkram“: Bietet zusätzliche Einblicke und vertieft die Themen des Buches auf unterhaltsame Weise.

        Anders essen

        Für unsere Welt, unser Klima und uns selbst

        by Nils Binnberg

        Sind Veganer tatsächlich die besseren Menschen, müssen Fleisch-Esser sich schämen? Wo endet das Recht auf Selbstentfaltung? Wo beginnt kollektive Verantwortung? Und: Können wir uns und das Klima überhaupt noch heilen? Nils Binnberg, der bekannte Journalist und Autor des Erfolgstitels Ich habe es satt!, entlarvt in Anders essen unsere Befindlichkeiten und gängigsten Mythen über den Zusammenhang von Klimawandel und Ernährung. Er untersucht, ob und inwiefern Tierhaltung in Bezug auf den CO2‑Fußabdruck unsere größte Sünde ist. Und erläutert, ob es tatsächlich eine Ernährungsformel gibt, die unseren Planeten retten kann. Der Autor hat bei Landwirten, Politikern, Ökonomen und Wissenschaftlern, aber auch in seinem persönlichen Umfeld recherchiert. Sein Buch ist eine faktenreiche, meinungsstarke Ermutigung, die Chancen zu ergreifen, die vor uns liegen. Denn jeder Einzelne von uns kann etwas tun – auch ohne seine individuellen Bedürfnisse aufgeben zu müssen!
